I lost my dad when I was only 6 years old. I am now a dad myself. Seeing you put on your dad's work apron was so sweet. As a dad, I can promise you that he absolutely thought of you while watching this. Remember, he is your ghost. He'd cross time and space and all eternity to save you and show his love for you. Never forget that. As long as you remember him, he will always continue to live on.

The black hole, Gargantua, was actually created with a specific program that could take our current knowledge of black holes at the time, all the data we had, and simulate what the data says a black hole should look like. The result in the film is a little more dramatized, but it isn't far off what the simulation produced. And years later, when we finally got our first picture of a real black hole, it looked nearly identical to the one they simulated in Interstellar. So, the black hole in this film is also part of scientific proof of our data on black holes being correct up to the current day. Also, something else that i think is really cool is that it took about a month to render Gargantua, with some individal frames taking over 100 hours to render, even on a very, very powerful computer. It totaled out to be around 800 terabytes of data just for the black hole alone. Christopher Nolan is certainly one of the best at practical effects, but his use of both practical and cgi in this film is so seamless and particularly interesting, especially when it comes to the black hole. He also hired one of the best theoretical physicists in the world, Kip Thorne, to be his advisor on this film, as well as on Tenet, and also advised Cillian Murphy on his portrayal of Oppenheimer. In the film, the robot of Dr. Mann is actually named KIPP, just as a little Easter egg. Besides that, Kip Thorne basically wrote all of the equations you see on the chalkboards to make sure they actually made sense and didn't just look cool or sciencey. He played a major role in the entire film, in which Nolan was very adamant about not writing over the actual science too much, so that the science is actually done right and not just dramatized. Beyond Interstellar, Kip Thorne received the Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics and the Nobel Prize for helping to develop the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, in which was used to detect, for the first time in human history, gravitational waves propagating throughout space-time, in which their origin was discovered to be two black holes merging together. So, he's probably the best person Nolan could've picked to advise him on this film, and because of that decision, the film, to this day, continues to be used as a reference to our knowledge of black holes. And is one of the biggest reasons why Nolan is one of my favorite directors of all time.

[@Roach_Dogg_JR]

My favorite fact from Kip Thorne’s book about the movie, is that the black hole accretion disk would’ve been blue tinted on one side and red tinted on the other, due to the extreme orbital speed causing color shifts. They decided that that detail would be too much for the audience, but the idea of a blue and red black hole is awesome.

[@HossLUK]

@Roach_Dogg_JR yes, that's one of my favorites as well, and I also like that they chose to leave it out of the film. It's truly the perfect balance of science and storytelling.

[@MegaForrestgump]

QT. You nailed this reaction. Christopher Nolan wasn’t just telling a story. He was almost narrating our future. And the entire score from Hans Zimmer really drew out the emotion. The both of them make this movie an epic story. And that little joke about “my dad loved farming” is a subtle joke from a daughter to let her father know she forgave him.

[@nathanmendonca9467]

My father passed away in June and i just watched this movie again.

[@BadassRaiden]

The best piece of behind the scenes trivia about this film that you could possibly know, is that all of the visual effects were done PREproduction as opposed to post-production like the overwhelming majority of films do. This is so that whenever actors are reacting to some special effects during shooting, Nolan has those effects - because they were already done - projected onto screens for the cast to actually see and actually react to. Anne Hathaway said the first time she saw the black hole/wormhole on set during shooting she was moved to tears with how beautiful it was.

[@datdudeinred]

Where did you hear this? Or saw this? Is there any video we can watch these interviews or bts? The bluray?

[@BadassRaiden]

@@datdudeinred Well personally I have a limited edition of a Blu-ray combo pack DVD with a separate special features disc but I'm gonna assume the "limited" aspect of that has to do with all the other stuff that came with it, and not like the content included in the special features. So with that said, I imagine that any currently available version of the film should have all the special features I have access to on my edition and that it is during interviews in the special features where Nolan himself says that his team did all the visual effects ahead of time in pre-production and then during filming they had those effects being projected onto screens for the cast to react live to instead of using green screens. It may also be in those interviews where Anne Hathaway talks about seeing the black hole for the first time but that might just be from a random junket interview. Is it junket or junkit? I dunno. Anywho, yeah I assume it should be available on any version of the film that includes special features.

48:42 The quantum data was the data they were missing to solve the equation. Tars collected the data and gave it to Cooper to send to Murph.

[@JosephHuntelvisnspiders]

Cooper also brings TARS to Wolf's planet, who still has the data. The beings who helped earth were the descendants of Wolf's planet.

[@Masterfrogg]

The "quantum data" is the observational data of a naked singularity (inside of a black hole), which was the missing piece of the Professors research and why he gave up on ever finishing it. The concept is that even if you can send something or someone down into a black hole to observe a naked singularity, it's an absolute that nothing ever physically leaves a black hole, not even light, not even information, so there'd be no way to get the data back to the Professor. That's why he, very rationally, gave up on that research and moved on to Plan B. But some future 5d humans built that mechanism INSIDE the black hole to connect people with those they cared about back home. Even humans so far in the future counted on love being the strongest human motivator, and it saved humanity. It's how they could get Cooper Station into space. So Plan A worked in the end! If you liked this movie I know FOR A FACT that you will like Arrival too! It's a fantastic movie with much the same vibe as this, but also very different. SUPER worth a watch!

I never had a father figure growing up but I sure had an amazing mother. I lost her at 18. I’m 31 now. This movie brings me so much emotion because I miss what I never had, and I also miss my mother. It reminds me of the things I missed out on, and how amazing my mother truly was because as a child I never realized I was missing out on anything at all.

[@mia_assassina]

Oh hey, you posted early today! Waking up to Tofu...I could get used to this 😏 Starting things off with the toenail story was certainly a choice, goofball. lol Again, glad it all worked out for you, the hot soak was _very_ smart. Unlike your decision to subject me to that horror story for the second time. That was just cruel. lol Personally, I love this movie, and I love that even so soon into it, you're digging it, too. I was right there with you on that parent-teacher conference: _great_ use of subtle and efficient exposition on the state of the world, and such a good character establishing moment for Cooper. And since I just hit that part of the reaction: I _love_ your commentary. You are so funny, so smart, so thoughtful in the way you analyze the world, characters, and themes-if this video was just nothing but a full hour of you laying out every (non toenail related :Ρ) thought and opinion you had when watching this movie, it would still be a _fantastic_ watch. "Stop talking"? Pff, absolutely not Yap for me, babe. I enjoy every second. ❤️ Cooper's departure gets me every time. It's such an interesting mystery that then suddenly barely even matters anymore in the face of the raw intensity of his cracking relationship with Murph. And yeah, the detail of him checking under the blanket again, her realizing she wants to say goodbye seconds after it's too late...ugh, fucking gets me. 😭 Having that tangible connection to ypur dad that you can throw on when you need it most is beautiful. I'm really glad you have that, Tof. Interstellar _was_ shot on film, good call. And the thing about everything but the bots being sorta low tech is a real philosophy that NASA has. You know the joke about how indestrucible old Nokia phones are? Same thinking. You build it in the older style, simple, with more mechanical components than fancier touch screens and other more advanced but fragile shit like that, and there's less chance for stuff to break and less you ultimately have to do specialized maintenance on. Anyway... Dude, when this movie picks up, it's just fucking _going_ for it. The tension on Mann's planet is so good, and the "No time for caution" scene is one of those crazy moments that's just gonna stay with me for years and years. The stakes, the music, the shots-excellent. And I love the black hole stuff. It just marries really cool sci-fi things with emotionally satisfying metaphilosophy so well and it just _works_ for me. _So_ good. Sending you so many hugs during that ending, love 🫂 🫂 Don't feel bad about being a little confused there, either. It's not super obvious. I'm sure someone (or many someones, given the way these comments work lol) have probably explained this already, so feel free to ignore me and skip ahead, but the short version of what the hell's going on with the "aliens" is that we're essentially looking at a lowkey stable timeloop. The mission "fails", and Brand enacts Plan B on her planet, creating a new human civilization from the stored embryos. Uncountable years go by, that civilization grows, flourished, and eventually advances to the point where they can manipulate time and gravity. These now highly advanced humans of the future create the wormhole and the construct hidden away inside the black hole to change time and correct what originally went wrong, allowing Cooper to pass Murph the secret of gravity manipulation much, much earlier so that she can use it to get the people still living on Earth in our "present day" to safety. The end (Sorry, not actually that short, I'm realizing 😂) This was such a good reaction, Tofu. Thank you for sharing it, for taking a chance on a movie that picked at a painful wound so many times, and for allowing yourself to be vulnerable enough to feel the entire rollercoaster of emotions it ellicited. You're amazing, babe. And you always bring your A game for us. Love you a ton. ❤️

[@bigdream_dreambig]

Great comment, but I wanted to correct one thing: the explanation you gave of the aliens and black hole is only one of two possibilities. Your story uses the "branched time" hypothesis where free will is unfettered and there are many timelines that branch off from one another. The alternate explanation assumes "invariant time," "fixed time," or "fated time." In _that_ case, events proceeds exactly as we see them presented here with Murph cracking the manipulation-of-gravity problem with help passed on from the far future and the population of Earth migrating off planet. Eventually, the descendants of those human beings figure out "all the spacetime stuff" and they create the wormhole, etc., thus closing the loop on their causality.

[@joshualopez3260]

Reading all these comments while watching the beginning of the reaction has me tearing up already and we haven't even gotten to the tear-jerking scenes yet. I lost my Dad 4 years ago this month. I miss him so, but they live on through us everyday. 💖

[@Vincent_AD]

I saw this film years ago - and very much liked it - but I had somehow kind of forgotten just how much of it is focused on the father-daughter relationship. As soon as I saw the title, though, it all came rushing back to me, and I quickly realized I wasn't getting through this video without crying too. Truth be told, I was starting to get teary eyed before we even got to the intro proper. This video was a real roller coaster of emotions. It was funny and sweet. It was thoughtful and insightful. It was heart-wrenching and personal. It was such an emotional journey, I *almost* forgot it opened with that skin-crawling story about your toenail injury. I say, "almost," of course, because that story and the accompanying, mortifying mental imagery it inspired is seared into my brain now, never to be truly forgotten. So, uh, thanks for that, I guess? "That's not the kind of movie reaction you're ever going to get from me." - I just want you to know that I would have it no other way, Tor. If I wanted to watch a movie, I'd go and, you know, watch a movie. I - as I assume most watching this are - am here very specifically because I love hearing your thoughts on the movies you react to. You have such a unique and interesting mind and perspective on the world, and it's always a treat hearing you apply that perspective to the events, characters, and relationships in these films as well as hearing ways in which you relate and connect them to your own life and experiences. I've told you many times how expressive your facial features are, but you're also very good at conveying your emotions verbally. You have a distinct and articulate way with words that allows you to say so much, but even when you have trouble finding the right words, your voice alone communicates so much of what you're feeling that it's impossible not to connect with the emotions you're experiencing and/or relating. Another thing I've told you many times is how much I love hearing about your dad and your relationship with him. This video, obviously, provided that in spades, but wow, was I not prepared for you to bring out and wear his apron. That was one of the sweetest things I've ever witnessed, and it just completely melted my heart to a degree it may never fully recover from. The love you two shared was just so special, Tor, and I will forever be grateful to you for giving us little glimpses into the truly beautiful relationship you two had. I just want to reach through the screen and give you biggest, warmest hug every time you talk about him. Anyway, I'm very glad you ultimately chose to release this video, Tor. It was truly beyond lovely getting to have this experience with you. It was wonderful and highly emotional. You had me laughing, you had me engaged, and more than once you had tears pouring down my face. Thank you for sharing this experience, Tor. And whatever movie or game it may be, I can't wait to see what you have in store for us next time.

[@HossLUK]

Two more things. Dr. Mann is actually a metaphor meant to represent the worst of humanity. His full name is "Hugh Mann" (human). While Cooper is meant to represent the best of humanity. Also, the reason KIPP exploded is not explained too well, and that's potentially due to Nolan not having a scientist specializing in explosives and how Dr. Mann would somehow learn to scrap together explosives and then somehow learn to code in a very specific code into KIPP that detonates the explosives when the true data of the planet tries to get accessed through KIPP. But, there is a prequel comic written by Nolan that is centered around Dr. Mann and KIPP on their planet. Towards the end of the comic, it mentions Mann not joining KIPP on one of the probe missions to find the planet's surface, and when KIPP came back, Mann commanded "bermondsey" which deactivated KIPP. So, the theory goes like this: KIPP comes back from his mission to find that Dr. Mann is creating false data and getting ready to send it back to Earth. KIPP threatens Dr. Mann to not send the data by saying he will self-destruct. (The government would likely allow this, and even advocate for it to be on the robots because of the absolute solitary and likelihood that they would not be saved on their planet, and even with all their training, the government wouldn't trust them to just sit there and die like they are meant to, if their planet is found to be inhospitable.) KIPP then initiates his self-destruct sequence, Dr. Mann immediately commands "bermondsey," which overrides KIPP's self-destruct attempt and deactivates him. So, when Romilly reboots KIPP, his self-destruct sequence continues. In the film, KIPP actually has a subtle line, "Please dont make -" The full line was "Please dont make me go back outside," which is a reference to a quote from TARS in the 2008 script by Johnathan Nolan. This line also feeds into the theory, as KIPP would have been in the middle of saying this right as Dr. Mann commanded a deactivation. Also, the joke about self-destruction with TARS at the end of the film when Cooper is setting his humor setting could also be linked back to the events with KIPP. Also, the deactivation command "bermondsey" is a district in the south of London, where Michael Caine was born. But yea, I'll be done ranting now, lol. It's just one of my favorite films, and i thought I'd give some slight bit more information just in case you or anyone would be interested.

Interesting fact: When they were trying to come up with a visualization of the black hole they inputed the data into a computer and they saw what was in the movie and were like "Oh this can't be right..." but then realized that gravity warps the light so that it appears like that and they wrote a paper about how black holes would actually appear.

[@elbo0079]

@QueenTofu this movie came out a few years after I lost my dad (I was young). I’m a dad now, and I can watch it from both Murph’s and Cooper’s perspectives. It tears me up every time. And I love it all the more for it. What Coop says to Murph as he’s getting ready to leave is one of those golden moments when art perfectly captures a snippet of life: “Now we’re just here to be memories for our kids. Once you’re a parent, you’re the ghost of your children’s future.” I understand that now on a level that tells me that line came from someone who lived it. My dad died years ago, but he’s also here every day, gently haunting me through my memories, still changing the world bit by bit in the way he guides my parenting of a child he never got to meet. And I know intimately that one day I’ll be that ghost for my kid, too, so I do everything I can now to make sure he will have as gentle and welcome a haunting as I’ve been blessed with.

Fun fact: Tars is voiced by the eventual author and astrophysicist to the book. the theories developed from the movie/books led to the actual research of black holes and found that their theories were basically spot on as far as what the black hole would look like.

Not sure if this has already been answered but on the wave planet, the reason they were so upset was because while they knew how much time meant going onto the planet, because of the wave they spent longer than they intended. What was meant to be like a 5 minute, drop in, get the data and leave turned into like an hour. So they relatively spent decades there

Cleave & dismantle isn't slowed down by the toughness of the material or element that they're used on. Only rapid healing counters them and they need to keep up to the speed of the slashing. If you have an indestructible metal like Uru/Vibranium or Adamantium, they're gonna get cut like nothing.

I'm grateful and honored you decided to share this with us

[@QueenTofu]

grateful that you took the time to watch the video, thanks so much! :)

19:29 "Dont be afraid." *IMMEDIATE SCREAMING* That scene has always cracked me up SO much lol

[@ZerofeverOfficial]

There's a theory that Cooper died in the accident at 9:02 and the rest of the movie is his journey into the afterlife, echoing Dante's Inferno/Homers Illiad/Odysee

33:43 the gravity of the black hole is so extreme that time is slowed down significantly. Also they couldn’t take off for a while cause the engines were flooded

[@zacharisincennes8026]

I could give you a hug right now, while also making sure not to step on your toe lol. Looking forward to your continuation of Spider-Man 2 and Batman The Enemy Within.

First time here because I loved Interstellar. I'm a dad of kids your age (what I assume is your age) and it was so sweet seeing you wearing his shop apron. Brave of you to be so vulnerable, and I'm very sorry for your loss. I absolutely loved the long toenail story, not that it happened, but problem solving your way through the pain and discomfort was pretty cool...good job. I still cry when I watch this movie.

[@howtocookazombie]

49:22 They are on a space station around Saturn, probably a so called "O’Neill cylinder". These are extremely huge, hollow space stations where many thousands or millions of people are living. They are rotating around their own axis to produce artificial gravity (centrifugal force) and are filled with air so people can live on the inner side of the "shell". Concepts of huge stations depicted landmasses, seas, lakes and even entire cities. They are also called "generation ships", since people would usually live their entire life inside. The one depicted in the movie seems to be one of those rotating ones, because the kids punched the baseball through the entire cylinder. It's a very interesting concept that we will probably use some time in the far future, when humanity will spread to space to live. Other concepts are called "Bernal sphere" or "Stanford torus", which looks like a huge wheel where the ceiling can be open to space without the atmosphere leaking into space (because it is pressed into the "wheel", so ships can enter and leave the station without docking.

I haven't had my toenail front flip up opposite of how it should be but I HAVE had TWO toenails on separate occasions start disintegrating from the back of the bed to the front of the nail. The first time was from after dropping an ammo box(I'm not a gun person, but it was my grandfather's from WWII, I use to to storage spare batteries) on my BIG toe. The bottom of the nail bed turned deep red, then the entire nail came loose from the under portion of the toe bed but was still stuck on the toe skin, so I could literally wiggle around my big toe nail back and forth like the tip of my nose, NOT NATRUAL AT ALL and felt extremely strange. Then that's when the base/back of the nail started disintegrating. It was like the back of my nail had a street pot hole in it and I basically to got it to start it's journey into looking normal again I had to/choose to cut into the back of my nail and work my way forwards to the front of the nail with nail clippers. The pot hole in it looked insanley graphic and NASTY (I have pictures I'm afraid to show anyone).Eventually there was no nail left. It was painful, but the slower I when the less pain it was. Took literally 4-5 months to grow back. Had to use a bit of cotton and push it between the nail and skin to make sure it didn't cut ingrown into the right side of my skin while it was growing. Now about a year later it looks perfectly normal again. Then 2 weeks ago I noticed my roast beef nail had literally just decided it was time for the back to move on up like the trunk of a car. It was perfectly healthy, it just decided to lift up for some reason. Being 40, and that never happening before, I was quite confused. This one though, being a smaller toe that was much more pliable and less surface area, I was able to remove the whole thing fairly easy but just cutting the entire back off to the middle of the front, then only the most front part of the nail was still attached. THAT part was painful. After that though, I had a nicely smooth though a bit sensitive alien feeling nail-less toe that I could sort of forget didn't have a nail once I put my sock and shoe on. It's only when I take them off that I'm reminded there's no nail there. In fact, I'm gonna take my shoe and sock off right now *untie, POP, unfurl*. Feeling and looking at it now, most of the bottom of the nail has grown back, and the top half is still quite thin with a bit of a lip on the edge of the false "front" where the edge should be isn't soft but also isn't a nail yet. Quite strange.... Well, I typed this after hearing about your nail story, on to the movie reaction!

[@vishalvenkat6]

Yes, the film was shot in 35mm anamorphic and 65mm IMAX film. Nolan is a film purist so most if not all of his movies are shot on film.

[@Real_Nutella]

You have more computing power in your cell phone than what was in the original space shuttles, so yes a lot of the "outdated" looks for the equipment is pretty accurate. Also, too much digital equipment can go bad easier than analog equipment. So in some ways, even in real life it's deliberate too

[@RoxxSerm]

Why i am so invested in a toe-accident story. Youre a good storyteller i think. That aside, this movie really is a tearjerker for anyone that experienced true loss. Its one of only a few that even when rewatching makes me tear up. Its just so well done.

[@wisdomsoptional6357]

Lost my dad right after i turned 18. Lost my mom ten years after. You're not alone. We're not alone.

[@Moondragon1821]

Kinda reminds me of this last weekend that I made my mom ( with newly diagnosed dementia ) take care of her feet/toes and oof..trying to manage her nails and I'm worried and she also has (possible?) fungus. Possible because she's not the most reliable so not sure if this is fungus or old lotion trapped under her long long long toenails. Ugh, either way, gonna be working on that with her over the next weeks...gonna watch this reaction now.

[@thomasmontgomery805]

My great grandma passed while fighting dementia in 2012 I wish you and her long and Amazing lives and I am sure she would be so proud to know how strong you have become she just struggles to remember to tell you sometimes.

[@NewsofPE]

the exact same thing happened with one of my toenails like 3 days ago, what I just did is put pressure on it to bend it back into place and that was it, waiting for it to grow enough so that the middle part that's bent becomes the white part of the nail and I can just cut it

[@maseratim11rko7]

Nolan shot Interstellar on 35 mm film in the Panavision anamorphic format and IMAX 70 mm photography.

[@Henchman_Holding_Wrench]

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the talking. Quickly simplified: Current understanding of physics breaks when it comes to how things work in the singularity of a black hole. We need to see what happens in there, but we can't. Once Cooper and TARS collected and sent data back, Murphy figured out gravity manipulation. Forming lines of sand, pulling on a second hand in a watch, pulling a house into space, and eventually, bending space enough (like the paper and pen thing) to form that wormhole.

[@thedrunkbard4772]

I lost my mom two years ago so i know what you're feeling. This was so emotional but necessary for me. Thank you for your honest reaction and sharing your memories about your dad. They're always with us my girl. Love and light to you 🌒🌕🌘

I wonder if he thought of you? 100% he was thinking of you! This is my favourite movie, seen it so many times I think about my kids, I even took them to see it at the cinema when it was re released. Thanks for sharing this reaction

I was just randomly re watching interstellar and thought let me see if there any reaction videos, and I see you just posted one less than an hour ago. Are we connected through the 4th dimension?

« Because my dad promised me » will always make me cry

[@DavidSmith-mt7tb]

Nolan likes to shoot on real film. Like Dark Knight, he shot epic scenes in IMAX and others regularly to save on film costs. Over an hour of this movie is filmed on 65mm IMAX. The rest was shot with various 35mm cameras. It's possible certain formats were more "grainy" than others, or that he added them with filter or some such.

[@charleshartley9597]

Haven't seen the whole video yet, but intro 10 out of 10!!! That's some "big brain" problem solving.

“Because my dad promised me” anyone else shed a tear? 18:18 what was that look and fixing of your hair? 44:24 that look tho, what does it mean?

[@TheAlkochef]

The first planet was so close to the gravitational pull of Gargantua, that for anybody being on that planet, would be greatly affected by its gravitational pull. Mass (as in the mass of an object) slows down time (as we knowe it), depending of its size and gravitational pull. Mass affects time, and a black hole has soo much of it. To us time is just a perception. Time can go slow, or move faster, mass warps time, its a proven fact. Astronauts and cosmonauts on the ISS are basically time travelers. But the gravitation of Earth compared to a black hole, is so different.

[@jhornacek]

I noticed The Last of Us music playing during Tofu's talk after the scene of Cooper talking to the two teachers at school.

[@HalkerVeil]

The toenail story needs it's own Hans Zimmer score. Btw those 'teeth' will turn into ingrown nails if not careful.

[@volosh67gayo49]

Loved you reaction. Very personal. Pd: 43:00 the embrios, plan B, was on the ship. So yeah, they needed it 45:30 harness Gravity, plan A. For the ship dr brand talked about at the beginning. You can see Gravity been harnessed at the end in the baseball match

[@vizar1337]

It set them back decades because of time dilation. The system they went to is near a black hole. Such immense gravitational forces causes time to move slower from someone outside the gravitational forces looking in. They lost decades because they are trying to get back to earth before everyone is dead

[@MercuryCircuit]

Bless you and sorry for your loss. This is my eldest daughter and my favourite film to blub at. We have seen this at the Imax in London and it was incredible.

[@avm3148]

Every time I tried to skip the intro, you kept talking about your toenails lol.. I got no context, but just found it funny. Will prolly watch the intro some day :3

[@ShiftyWolf117]

I don't really have a great relationship with my father, he was a difficult man when i was a kid and still is. But i watched this movie in theatres with him and it deeply moved me especially at the end when murph said "my dad promised me" it killed me.

[@blakewalker84120]

28:05 "How long does it for messages in space where they're at to get back to Earth?" Well, when you asked that, they were still right next to Earth, so only a second or two. But they're not going to stay next to Earth. They're going to Saturn. Lucky for us, NASA has sent craft to Saturn. Flew right past it and took a bunch of lovely pictures, in fact. One of those craft was named Cassini. Radio signals from NASA's Cassini spacecraft took around 83 minutes to reach Earth from Saturn. Of course, the Earth and Saturn are constantly moving in their orbits. Sometimes we're very far apart with the sun in between us, sometimes much closer with the Earth between the sun and Saturn, so it could be much more than 83 minutes, depending on orbital position.

[@pennze]

im too high rn cuz Im so invested in your toenail story that 6 mins in I ask myself "what am i watching again ?" Oh yeah an interstellar reaction cool

[@jamesreddington2885]

The two things you asked I think I have the answers for, 1: The water planet was slower in time because it was closer to the black hole so copper was saying that because of the engines getting water logged that they had to wait longer to leave costing more time. 2: The data needed was a formula for gravity, I’m assuming they needed this formula for gravity to get a station big enough to transport the people on earth which replicates the gravity on earth to sustain the life until they reach there new planet.

[@jgrado3]

Those masks would work fine for dust as long as there’s a decent seal around the edges. Source: I used to wear masks for dust at my job and my employer would require a fit test to find the mask that provided the best seal.

The spinning simulates the gravity, hence the reason they could walk.
