Default Re: Enterprise on VHS

I liked the tech levels in Bab5 and found it mostly plausbile, except for all that psychic stuff, and all the time travel. Reading brain waves can currently be done by extremely specialised machines (and even then not at any great range or detail of interpretation). Imho it could conceivably be done at a similar level by aliens, but never by unmodded humans.

When I write scifi outside of the se universe, there will be no time travel and no psychics.

I also thought the B5 fighters moved quite convincingly, on the whole, like the way they'd rotate 180 degrees to slow down or reverse course.
