| ecb24f3 | Given their current circumstances, things would have to be very bad indeed for Tilly to think the situation had gotten worse. Sure, they were all trapped in orbit around an alien space station that periodically changed the rules of physics and had killed a bunch of them, but now they'd decided to start shooting each other too. Yes, very bad. | death orbit circumstances bad physics | James S.A. Corey | |
| 026a219 | The velocities and forces involved in anything at orbital altitudes were enough to kill a human with just the rounding error. At their speeds, the friction from air too thin to breathe would set them on fire. | friction orbit rounding-error velocity speed physics | James S.A. Corey |
