I am still resisting itemizing in lengthy detail, but Firefly's physics is completely bogus. Firefly's engineering is completely bogus. Firefly's biology is completely bogus. Firefly's economics is completely bogus. Firefly's psychology and social dynamics are completely bogus. etc. It's really cheesy pre-Stanley Weinbaum 1930's space opera. I'm interested in science fiction, not stuff with a thin coat of science fiction paint.
