I thought it was good. I'm not a scientist so I couldn't say whether the science was bad or not but most of it pretty much made sense to me the way it was presented except for a couple little things.
SPOILERS BELOW
When they realized that because of the time difference that the doctor on the water planet had probably just crashed when they got there I thought that they should have been something they took into account before they wasted the fuel/time to go there. also, why were a handful of planets next to a black hole ever even considered viable homeworlds?
And when you come in for a landing and crash into ice clouds and see nothing but tundra I figure it's a safe bet to count your losses and head for the other planet. Sorry crazy Matt Damon. Also, you think there would be the technology to communicate somehow with the base camp before they land. Initiate the deep sleep wake up routine remotely, then have open comms with the doctor and even be able to upload research data. without even landing. Or even leaving orbit. They're sending video messages through a fucking wormhole from earth still but they have to land in an unknown environment and physically find the doctors? They should have set up an unmanned orbiter that they could have been beamind the research data to in real time. Then beam that out so it can be received as soon as they come through the wormhole
. Seems like the data they DID get was minimal and useless if they actually had to physically go there just to see what's up.
Also... wheat died out but they're kicking back drinking beers. There's a plague but trees line main st. It didn't seem that dire.
Also, while he's sending the data on interdimensional gravity manipulation via dots and dashes, which, and again, I'm no physicist, would probably fill 5000 notebooks and take a a million hours to transcribe he could have included "Hey Murph, this is your dad.." somewhere in there.
Basically, Plan B works, she goes to the other planet, sets up a baby factory and the human race flourishes on the new planet who I assume studied the black hole that is nearby for many years and figure out how to manipulate gravity and created the wormhole... which made their own existence possible in the first place? I think I just found a time travel paradox...DAMNIT! I know it's not real time travel but it kind of is since he's communicating with his daughter in the past. Time travel never works!
But otherwise I thought it was entertaining.
