I caught the first episode last night. Watching the old series I can't imagine how I ever liked that show. This version seems slicker but chock full of the requsite PC pablum. I will gander at tonight's episode most likely. I just like to point out all the scientific idiocy that go on in these shows. Number one complaint- there is no noise in space! Number two- the gravity fields on these vessels is never explained. Number three- why do vipers have "wings" in space?

I know about the noise, but at least it was reduced to a muted level instead of the screeching phaser-like volumes.

Gravity fields are possibly just another engineering feat of these types of Sci-fi.

"Wings" on the vipers are understandable: They do operate both in atmosphere and space.
