>spaceship is visible on the screen

Any sci-fi films or shows that avoid this trope?
>>
>>214648884
always thought it would be cool for a whole Sci-Fi movie to have all shots of space be from the perspective of cameras mounted to the exterior of the ship like we see from real life NASA footage
I think there was a show like 15 years ago called Defying Gravity that tried this but they half-assed it

no sci-fi film nor show has truly dark space

how far do you have to be from sun to get dark? is there a daylight on pluto?
>>

Wrong

>>214648884
In star trek the romulans and klingons could cloak. Is that what you mean?
>>
>>214649740
>is there a daylight on pluto?
Yeah. There's way less sun energy that far out but there's still more than enough light for even humans to see just fine in daylight hours
>>
>>214649790
No. What is the visible light being transmitted to? There are no cameras in space.
>>
>>214649740
>1/900 the brightness it is here on Earth, or about 300 times as bright as our full moon
You still have daylight on Pluto, but its rather dim.
>>
>>214649740
Daytime on Pluto is about as bright as dusk just after the sun has dipped below the horizon, you could still see perfectly fine and even read if you wanted
>>
>>214648884
They're directly above the day side of an earth like planet, why wouldn't they be visible?

They still show it at some point but it's probably as close as it gets to what OP wants.
>>
>>214648884
Do you mean a space show where it's implied all shots are taken from a real camera?
>>
If the planet next to it is lit up by the sun, why wouldn't the spaceship be too?

Moon, with this guy. I don't remember spaceships, but it's been awhile since I saw it.
>>
>>214648884
I've never thought about this. So in deep space far from any star you can't actually see shit, like being on the ocean floor?
>>
wtf is this thread?

>>214648884
2001 doesn't but it's decently realistic aside from everything involving the monoliths

then everything else unravels backwards, and Pluto goes dark. you'll kill millions.

it would be like viewing the night sky in a remote area far from light pollution. vast numbers of stars visible all around you
>>
>>214648972
>Defying Gravity
Oh, I watched that.
>>
>>214648884
There is no atmosphere in space. So light travels at full power and constantly. It's literally never dark at any point in space unless you are near a black hole. Do they even have schools in America anymore?
>>
>>214652783
As he said, there are distant stars and galaxies all around giving off light.

there's no camera when you're watching the movie, that's like saying you can't enjoy a story being told to you about space because you wouldn't be able to hear the storyteller's voice in space
>>

why the fuck shouldn't it be visible? idiot

The whole premise of this show is absurd. Why would humans leave comfy Earth to live a precarious existence depending upon life support systems in space, when robots can do all the space business humans could do, and better than them?
>>
>>214655912
Have you seen how retarded even the most advanced robots are, completely unable to react to new situation the programmers didn't anticipate? Exploring space will provide none of these unknown unknowns I'm sure.

Turns out meat robots are still king when it's about improvising. Robots are great for repetitive tasks in hazardous environments, sure, but dealing with "new" situations not so much.

earth is a polluted, overpopulated shit hole in the expanse.

but maybe a bit half-assed.

>>214652196
no the whole no sound in space thing is totally wrong. depressurizing would make a ton of noise because of the air molecules hitting everything, also impact of astronaut into shit etc
>>
love me some spaceship cockpit
>>
>>214655912
obviously because the expanse is centered around the fall of man and the rise of brownoids everyone is too stupid to make computer systems hence why people mine ice for water instead of drones.
>>
Thought the expanse was weirdly acted, very off putting for some reason

There's nothing absurd about it whatsoever. Humans are guaranteed to continue populating the planet until it's overflowing. It will not stop until it reaches critical mass. In Expanse, there's something like 60-70 billion people in the system split between Earth, Mars, the Belt, and the outer planets. Earth is so overpopulated that people wait decades for a slot to open to actually get a job they desire. That's realistic scifi. Nothing wrong with people instead wanting their children to live on ships and stations in the belt where they don't have to put up with Earth shit. Or Mars working towards a common centuries long goal of terrforming the planet.
>>
>>214655912
Mars was founded by a communitarian cult who were working to terraform a new planet. some people like the challenge.
Once Mars got somewhat self-sufficient, Earth-Luna had to put markers around the Belt to keep from being besieged.

This is science fiction right? Imagine greater advancements than current level technology, and have them go out and harvest resources.

At some point any population is going to reach the limit of capacity - colonizing the solar system is just prolonging the problem, and at least a societal collapse on Earth still has the advantage of Earth being a natural ecosystem - if a society fails on Mars or some little asteroid - life support is going to fail really quick and there is no bugging out to a nearby forest.

The best depiction of the future should either have robots doing everything for us, or else humans transforming into a hive consciousness where the individual does not matter, or Dune where some cultural contrivance stagnates robotics.

You never actually see the exterior of Babylon 5.
>>
>>214656769
Maybe you're right but I still don't like to think about a future that doesn't involve space pirates. Also, if robot technology is that advanced, shouldn't they also have tech to make people be able to live in space indefinitely?

Also, sentient robots will band together and ditch their oppressors or something, if they're not equipped with an undefeatable kill-switch.

How does the spell-checking work on this site? Is this a browser thing? Just asking because that checker doesn't know "undefeatable", marking it as an error like a retard. I swear the spell-checker used to be better a while back.
