He notes that sci-fi programs have physicists as advisors rather than biologists - and the biology in the shows is almost universally awful

The whole premise of Star Trek:Voyager is that you have a spacecraft 'stuck' on the far side of the Galaxy. It can travel at any % of c it desires without even engaging its warp drive, and can travel back in time through the great 'slingshot round the Sun' nonsense. How many series? End of the very first episode should have been - hi, we're back!
