SEARCH IN THE GALAXY

For a TV show almost everything is acceptable. But, for instance, Earth diameter is 12.742 km, satellite geosync is 36.000 km (3 times diameter), Moon distance is 384.000 km. So geosync is about 10% of moon distance. That´s pretty far for a artificial "star bridge" to be built. If this structure fall, it would really be a necklace around the planet, because Earth perimeter is 40.000 km, so the necklace would embrace almost the full globe, just as said by Brother Day on the serie. Point to Mr. Goyer.

That sounds correct. It does appear that Gaal Dornick will end up being part of the Second Foundation in the show. The third episode also introduced Hugo, whose biological age is far lower than his chronological years of existence. Since this was the result of traveling in cryosleep for long durations, then the same could apply to Dornick. I am pleased that the show seems to be set to a timelime closer to the books than an ultra rushed one. For instance, suppose the Mule appeared in say only one hundred years or less after Hari Seldon's death. That would have been an issue. However, fortunately, the third episode seems to clear this concern up. A significant amount of time has already passed between the beginning of the Foundation and the time n the Anacreon force lands on Terminus.

I think you are correct. I hope they don’t rush to the Mule though. There are still some important crisis that The First Foundation will face and overcome to evolve into the space organization that will get The Mule’s attention.

That cliffhanger had to be part of the plan though. Rayche would do anything Seldon asked of him. And no one on Terminus could know the whole plan if it were to succeed.

I agree and I think her being jettisoned into space has something to do with it.

I don't understand why people who don't like it go to the trouble of using a Foundation fan app.

You know what, it makes sense. I was also thinking that it might be the way they allow Gaal live through different foundational ages, because at the very beginning she said she knew the Mule, so that’s odd, isn’t it?

The way I'm interpreting Gaal in the series is that she's a composite character of several others in the books, with some other ideas thrown in. Or maybe you could say she's an entirely new major character pretending not to be an entirely new major character by having enough features of known characters. She's got in her Gaal, Manella, probably Wanda, and maybe Bayta. I also wonder if the Second Foundation in the series is going to be a lot closer to the First Foundation than it is in the books. In the books somebody would be a First or Second Foundationer, but rarely both. I'm thinking Gaal may be both, and this situation may be relatively common.

I can't wait to hear the main theme!

Yeah my guess would be that he is Gaal and Raych’s son saved as a zygote during Episode 2. Not sure why that would be a mystery though. Are the foundationers not allowed to to know which children are there genetic offsprin? or will Raych never even make it to Terminus?
