Hard Science vs Hollywood: What Project Hail Mary Gets Right | Reid Nicewonder & Brett Hall

Project Hail Mary is rare: A science fiction film that refuses to talk down to its audience, built on hard physics, curiosity, and two characters solving problems through reason rather than force. Peter Boghossian, Reid Nicewonder, and Brett Hall dig into what the film gets right about how knowledge is actually created, why scientific progress may require open societies, and what it would mean to encounter a civilization that evolved entirely different physics. The film's quiet optimism turns out to be its most radical feature. More From Brett Hall Twitter: @ToKTeacher YT: @bretthall9080   Follow Peter Boghossian for more.
