Expanse is really interesting that there is basically just one super science item and thats the Epstein drive (well, if you don't count the near magic the protomolecule does). Everything else is pretty much slightly improved current tech (transparent smartphones, better medical tech, practical implants, advanced life support systems).
One could even say some things aere kess advanced than one would expect - quite a few autonomous weapons, big rotating space colonies (oneil island 3, standfor torus, clarke wheel, etc) or worldhouses. Also no laser/gracer/xaser weapons or long range kinetic energy weapons. And no nuclear bomb pumped lasers.
