How do they handle the science behind everything? Do they try to use modern concepts and technologies and misunderstandings of how those work, or do they hand-wave it as “this is their technology and they will not elaborate because it’s basically going to be magic to you” kind of science?

I’m not an educated science-ologist (not to be confused with scienTologist) but I do dabble in quite a lot of the astrophysics, geology, etc, as a 20+year hobby, so space-based science fiction tends to rub me the wrong way when they try explain things using modern concepts, but they have misinterpreted or misrepresented things to “make it work”

Treknobabble is 100% okay for me, it’s a technology I don’t understand because it’s too advanced for me and uses concepts only theorized for now.

Or is it less sciencey focused and more “these are the stories of these peoples” anthology type? Both sound good.

Honestly it sounds fascinating, and from the buried synopsis of a few, I think I’m gonna like it. It’s been awhile since I read science fiction, I’ve been focusing on fantasy lately, specifically Dungeons & Dragons-universe books.
