На днях закончился научно-фантастический сериал Expanse по серии книг Джеймса Кори. Я не читал книги, но сериал посмотрел с удовольствием.
По сюжету недалёкое будущее, на Земле адское перенаселение, и бОльшая часть людей живёт на пособие по безработице, потому что их банально нечем занять. Но живут не бедно, вполне в достатке. Другие две части человечества колонизировали Марс и пояс астероидов. Марсиане вынуждены были в суровых условиях выживать и терраформировать планету, поэтому стали мощной военной технократией и опередили в своих технологиях Землю. «Астеры» же влачат тяжёлое и вредное для организма (из-за низкой гравитации) существование на космических станциях и кораблях, занимаясь в основном шахтерскими работами и пиратством. В центре этого политического замеса одна девушка полуслучайно натыкается на инопланетную субстанцию, начинается сюжет.
Несмотря на упоминание инопланетян, сериал вполне взрослый и серьезный. Мне очень нравится, что автор не углубился в каноничные для космоопер упрощающие жизнь концепции. В Expanse нет искусственной гравитации: на станциях она создаётся вращением, на кораблях — ускорением и торможением, а люди носят электромагнитную обувь. Ещё тут нет гипердвигателя, поэтому люди не вышли за пределы Солнечной Системы, а внутри перелёты занимают недели и месяцы. Конкретно в сериале ещё и почти смело показано отсутствие звука в космосе: он, конечно, есть, но подаётся нам как бы из ушей членов экипажа. Внутри корабля ты услышишь выстрел из ракетницы, но смачных взрывов и шума реактивных струй в вакууме практически нет. При этом космические бои и физика движения кораблей переданы очень реалистично, а не как в Звёздных Войнах, где корабли это будто самолёты в атмосфере. Ну и да, никаких лазеров, из оружия снаряды, ракеты и рельсовые пушки. А связь со скоростью света с соответствующими задержками.
Стремление авторов не развлекать народ цветной жвачкой сыграло с ними злую шутку: сериал чуть было не закрыли из-за недостаточной аудитории. Но его выкупил Amazon — по слухам сам Джефф Безос был фанатом. Прикиньте, смотрите вы сериал, и тут услышали новости о его закрытии. Поднимаете трубку и покупаете сериал, чтобы продлить съёмки.
Впрочем, авторам не удалось нормально закрыть все сюжетные линии, а события, происходившие в первом сезоне, связаны с событиями из последнего сезона очень косвенно. И тем не менее, в современном мире это редкий образец умной и взрослой научной фантастики, почти не идущей на компромиссы.

📈Bullish Pattern - BULLISH ENGULFING
A. How to recognice it?
• There must be a preceding downtrend.
• A shorter red candle followed by a longer green candle.
• The green candle opens lower and closes higher than the red candle, completely engulfing it.
B. What is the psychology behind?
• The red candle implies the control of the bears following a prolonged downtrend.
• In next session, the market opens below the low of the red candle, suggesting continuation of the bearish forces.
• The bears then lose momentum, the bulls take charge and lead the price up during the session, and eventually manage to close above the high of the red candle.
• The bulls have now fully overridden the bears.
C. How do we trade it?
• Look for the Bullish Engulfing at the bottom of a downtrend.
• Wait for the next candle to close above the high of the green candle to confirm the existence of bullish force.
• Open a long position upon confirmation.
• Place a stop-loss below the low of the green candle.

🌎 In the Namib Desert, strange circular patches called “fairy circles” appear in the grass, forming patterns seen from the air. Scientists suspect termites or plant competition cause these barren rings, which can measure 2 to 15 meters wide and last for decades. ✨

🌎 The Namib Desert is home to the world’s oldest living desert fairy circles—mysterious bare patches of earth surrounded by rings of grass. Scientists believe termites create these strange patterns by eating plant roots underground, shaping the desert’s landscape for centuries. ✨
