Talk:Ragnar/Archive 1

How do we know that Ragnar is a gas giant, or furthermore that the cloud around the Anchorage is part of the atmosphere of the gas giant? This is never specifically stated in the miniseries. Is it in a book or something?

I think we all assumed that in order for a planet's atmosphere to extend so far out that ships could remain both in-atmosphere and in orbit, it would have to be. On further reflection, though, it makes no sense that Ragnar station could remain in orbit if it was that deep in the atmosphere. The drag must have been tremendous. I'll have to check the episode transcript and the novelization later. --Peter Farago 22:11, 12 March 2006 (CST)
