For All Mankind: Pathfinder (2021)
For all women and mankind
The writers should check their space flight history and manuals for what a space ahuttle can or cannot do.
If want to make a series that has technical content right you need to make some sense and so not falsfy truth
In this series thwy use it for making trips to the moonand back. I know better and almost everyone does.
As of now, or in 1983 it's not possible to travel to the Moon using a space shuttle. Space shuttles like the ones used by NASA were primarily designed for low Earth orbit missions, such as servicing the International Space Station. Traveling to the Moon would require a different type of spacecraft, such as the Apollo spacecraft used during the Apollo missions or more modern spacecraft like the Orion capsule.
Even the landing or the subsequent takeoff would have been impossible.
Thank you for reading.
For All Mankind: The Bleeding Edge (2021)
Technical plot issues in space
When this series started i was surprised to see how meticulously all the technology was shown. It was all very well and correctly done. The spacecrafts looked just fine and the flight controllers did their job well and correctly.
But with each episode they brought in space flight technologies, procedures and feats that were just not possible or feasible.
For example: It was not possible for a LSAM to lift amd land so many times as were shown in the last episodes of season one. There were no fuel left and there were no fuel tanks shown outside the moonbase to fill the tanks.
And when Apollo 24 failed to ignite the engine of the S- IVB and go for TLI, it would have caused an immediate abort along the mission rules.
And now in this episode they show astronauts traveling towards Earth in a space shuttle . It is not possible to land on the moon or take off frim the surface of the Moon with a Space Shuttle. It is meant only for short distances and it requires lots of energy and fuel and needs to be launched vertically and definitely there are jo runways on the moon where it can land!
The creators of this series do not care about authenticity or technical constraints at all. And that is a big shame. Or they could at least fill the plot holes by just showing these techniques to the viewers.
That could make the series look more interesting ans convincing.
A colossal letdown!
Signora Volpe (2022)
Sour Risotto ala Fox in Perugia
Emilia Fox stars and produces this supposedly sweet and soft crime story. Seemingly harmless and fluffy stories are filled with beautiful scenes and unshaved men. The episodes have a vast array of local persons but none of them are particularly intersting and genuine. All have a perfect and fluent ability to speak english just like that. The episodes have lots of plot holes and unnecessary scenes.
The.plots are thin and are quite banal and unoriginal. I cannot avoid to make references and feelings that this is just anaother way to use old and used scripts in a different setting. The Italian sentiment and flavors re only a coating.and not used in full.
Emilia Fox is givins us a performance that repeats her character in the Silent Witness. She is not able to provide answers to the questions raised by her personal experiences and thoughts. Her facial expressions remain the same throughout.
Recommended for lazy afternoon watching.
Murder Mystery (2019)
A summer flick
Only slightly better flick from the Sandler factory is just watchable as a summer movie and during the flight to Corfu. Silly plot/story and the whole thing relies on not to the plot but to wisecracks and some silly situations. The ending is a bit rushed. The chemistry between the leads is decent and saves a lot.
