1) I have seen the movie, and read the post, and his opening claim that "there aren't any spoilers", is kind of not true. While there aren't any explicit, blatant spoilers, he does kind of rub up against the plot a lot, in a way that gives a lot of hints that people might not want to know, before seeing it.
2) Was no one else bothered by his "Pioneer" faux pas? He's obviously extremely advanced, scientifically -- light years beyond my level -- and yet, he erroneously states that Pioneer 10 is the furthest human object in interstellar space ... which stopped being true when Voyager 1 passed it back in the 1990s ... and, strictly speaking, Pioneer hasn't even reached interstellar space, yet.
I know it shouldn't bother me as much as it does ... but of all the science he talks about in this post, this is the one thing I know about -- and he got it wrong, so now I have doubts about everything else he said.
