Über diesen Titel

Is the universe silent because it’s empty, or because it’s hiding? In this episode of The Narrative Lab, we dissect the "Super Bowl of Sci-Fi": Cixin Liu’s The Three-Body Problem.

From the psychological scars of the Cultural Revolution to the terrifying implications of the Dark Forest Theory, we explore why this story scares millions of people—and why Barack Obama and Mark Zuckerberg endorsed it. We also compare the hard science of the books against the recent Netflix adaptation by Benioff and Weiss.

Topics Covered:

    • The History: Ye Wenjie, the Cultural Revolution, and the "Struggle Session."

    • The Science: "Physics No Longer Exists," Sophons, and the Sun as a super-antenna.

    • The Philosophy: Cosmic Sociology, Chains of Suspicion, and the solution to the Fermi Paradox.

    • The Verdict: Are humans "bugs"? And is our curiosity a fatal flaw?

Mentioned in this Episode:

    • Book: Remembrance of Earth's Past Trilogy by Cixin Liu

    • Concept: The Dark Forest Theory

    • Show: Netflix’s 3 Body Problem
