  My favorite part is when it justifies my rabid paranoia right at the end.

  I watched this last night by mistake, and can confirm, its garbage. The most irritating plot hole is that this guy isolated on an island and prepared for any eventuality including a beach invasion, somehow doesn’t have a bit of pennecilin in case of an accidental cut and infection.

  I downloaded it by mistake because I was trying to get Shelter (2014) with Jennifer Connolly. Then searching it on the bay, I realized how many movies that were called Shelter or have shelter in their name. There’s at least 4 called Shelter, 2 called The Shelter, and a bunch of others.

  They don’t even want it to be interesting, they want it to be semigloss white, stainless steel and glass. The most interesting thing they can come up with is white mega yachts and Infinity pools. They can’t fathom the mood of a creaky old wooden fishing trawler chugging seawards into a misty sunrise.

  I doubt it, calibrating a focal point to a relatively nearby target, say a hundred metres or so, is fairly simple, but to apply that to a satellite, a moving target (with a changing velocity if we are talking about a satellite in an eccentric or molnya orbit) either in high or low earth orbit, that’s a distance of between 200-20,000kms.

  Even a satellite in perfectly circular orbit is constantly changing its distance relative to a point on the ground, meaning you have to constantly adjust the focal point of the mirrors. At 250km, your field of mirrors (say, a 100m circle of them) would describe about 0.023 degrees of curvature, almost completely flat.

  And that’s before accounting for atmospheric attenuation and scattering of the light.

  On a clear night with many gw of laser energy, maybe you could peel the skin off a low orbit satellite, it even that would be impractical.

  IIRC there was an incident where someone went super hard on the wheel and got kind of pulled into it and clobbered on the head by one of the pins. Or maybe this was just a deep inner phobia of mine.

  Any bit of machinery, even if unpowered and covered in bright numbers, with non-arbitrary mass can carry enough momentum to break bones and crush fingers
