friendly revenge for @celestialdeth of their transfemme Jack Spicer design. I love her ;w;

I really like the way Project Hail Mary presents controversial research. The main concept explored in Grace’s paper, that life does not need hydrogen/ water to evolve, is not proven to be correct based on what we see in the book. However, aspects of his paper are eventually proven to be true. Life can evolve outside of the Goldilocks zone, and water’s role in the development of life can be more complex than originally thought (how Rocky’s biology works and evolution of life on Erid).

It’s an interesting way of exploring the presentation scientific research, you may not be correct 100 percent of the time, but the research that you conduct can pave the way to expansive thinking. While the main hypothesis might be incorrect, if methods and procedures are utilized properly, the ideas and research that results from the experiment are not wasted! They can be repurposed for future research or be used as evidence to support the prevailing line of thought. This aspect of half truths felt like a tribute to the practice of academic writing, and added a lovely layer of realism.

It goes to show that Grace’s hypothesis really could have evolved to have some weight behind them if he had given it time. Stratt and the rest of his field at the beginning of his process were definitely barking up the right tree.

Rocky really said medium rough texture circle planet with his whole carapace.

But it makes me wonder if Eridians just aren't big on naming things. If memory serves they weren't a space faring race and only went to Tau Ceti out of necessity. And when Grace asked him the name of his ship he said it's just called ship and compared naming it to naming a chair. The convention didn't seem to really make sense to him. So perhaps it's just not a thing they do which is so interesting. Especially when coming from a culture that names everything AND has a habit anthropomorphizing the things around us.

It very much seems like pareidolia, object empathy, and anthropomorphizing are human qualities. Like, humans will pack bond with anything we can imagine ("see") as sentient, while Eridians might only pack bond with things they can actively communicate with. Probably because they're ambush predators who look like rocks with no faces, on a planet where all life probably looks like rocks without faces, and can't walk up to any rock they come across and assume sentience without talking to them. While humans are designed to look at things and understand details like, "where's the face of this animal so I can sneak up on it or get out of a dangerous animal's line of sight"

I dont think Grace would suffer so much from the malnutrition because of the rock mutation going on, but Simon would still try to prioritize Grace's health over his own (even when he himself is suffering a lot from lack of food sources)
