    One of the most disturbing scenes of the book got omitted. There were various failed attempts at unfolding a photon, one of which revealed a universe of sentient life within the folded dimensions, and they effectively ended a universe doing this

      I’m a bit sceptical about the belief that we don’t have catastrophes in the past. Many people believe that there were megalithic civilisations but they were completely wiped out before the Young Dryas era twelve thousand years ago. They left behind nothing except huge stones, like Stonehenge in England, Pyramid in Giza, etc. We still cannot explain how those large granite stones were perfectly cut and transported and stacked together. And there are proofs of large catastrophic events happened in the Young Dryas era that has led to massive sea level rises and the complete desertification of Sahara.
      We may find more proofs under the ocean or in the Sahara Desert some day.

      @@dennisd9875 Individual civilizations? Maybe. The Spanish Inquisition caused the end of the Aztecs. The difference is that every Chaotic Era is an apocalyptic event wiping out all of the San Ti, meaning that the equivalent for us would be a single event that wiped out all of humanity and set us back one step of the evolutionary chain. We’ve had massive catastrophies, the Black Plague being the most recent one, wiping out 50% of Europe’s population. However, that’s still just one continent. A catastrophe like what the San Ti would endure during a Chaotic Era, wiping out all of humanity (or whatever subset of the Homo species we would’ve been)…no, it’s never been scientifically proven that we have been through that.

    This is probably the scariest alien sci-fi I I've ever seen. What I really like about the San-Ti is they are not just your typical aliens that show up, glass the planet and takeover. No, they distort Earth's reality and science, literally haunting, terrifying and traumatizing anyone who can challenge them, whilst still being 400 years away. On top of that, we still don't even know what they look like. Really looking forward to S2, however it's like 3 years away lol.

And they are actually scared of us, humans, describing us having the "terrifying ability to accelerate our own evolution, as well as being an agressive race"
      Actually, it is said that humans are faster in evolution than trisolarians not because of the stability our our system, but because in our society, we value the expression of individualities, which is accelerating the rate of having different creative ideas, therefore faster way of making new scientific theories and discoveries.

      How do you even visualize what that is suppsoed to look like? What is a computer printed on a proton even supposed to look like? How do we even get down that small and construct anything out of anything when we are already as small as one of the smallest units in physics already. How are there molecules and elements down here that make up a computer - idk xD its so wild it brings me so many questions.

      When Native Americans encountered Europeans who were more scientifically advanced than them, they were massacred by the Europeans. Despite the Europeans having more advanced technology than the Native Americans, they harmed the Native Americans for their own survival. Technological advancement does not necessarily equate to kindness. Present-day Native Americans certainly do not wish Columbus had discovered them. Humans possess intelligence and civilization that animals do not, but many people hunt just for pleasure. Some of these people may be Christians or Muslims who believe devoutly, yet they do not hate hunting animals for pleasure. How much animals wish humans wouldn't discover them.

In it, an alien species arrives at earth, asking for help in their war with another alien species. Earth becomes a simple war colony over time. If I remember correctly they even switch sides some day and ally with the other alien species. The war goes on and on and on, and in the end, earth gets completely destroyed while the war still goes on in countless other galaxies and on countless other planets. This series reminds me of that story in a way. Humanity thinks we are the shit, but we are just collateral to forces we can't even fathom.

They evolved into a "We need to do this together to survive".

    The shape you see the Sophon take when they're expanding it is a Calabi-Yau manifold and is a theoretical depiction of multiple folded dimensions. It's hard to imagine what it looks like - we barely can imagine what 4D objects look like (hyperspheres, hypercubes). This example would be a 6th dimensional fold and such objects are thought to be able to store a nearly infinite amount of information, could potentially open up wormholes in lower space dimensions like in ours, and a lot more. So blowing up a proton for nuclear computing purposes, printing onto it a giant computer along it's 6D surface, and then shrinking it back down (if one could do such a thing) is technically feasible in 11D String Theory. You get 11 dimensions from 9 space and 2 time (or 8 space and 3 time if you wanna get real fancy)

The moment when the San-ti realize that humans can lie, cheat, and strategize in secret was an "Earth" shattering revelation to their society.

      It’s already been started. There are three books and the scale and timeline are huge. They dipped into all three books in this first season but there are still so many unbelievable story lines and plot twists coming up I imagine this lasting at least 5 seasons.
