That's the same size as the one posted here. Actually compressed a bit more than this one.

Weird. When I open the original it's really low res. Maybe it's a Sync for Lemmy bug.

Had the trick explained to me not long ago You have to open the post, and then open the image in the post, to get proper resolutions of images in sync

Today I learnt. Thanks for that.

Boost tends to download a smaller copy, and the expand/full screen button downloads the bigger copy. Maybe sync has similar?

I'm having the same issue in Jerboa. Never had issues with other large images. Thanks for the link.

I don't remember... Was the Charon's size mentioned in the show? Or is this from background notes or something?

I mean clearly it was crazily huge, I'm just wondering where the 9600 meters figure came from.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

From what I can tell it's been put together from the shots of the Discovery travelling through the center of it. We know Discoveries size so you could calculate it. That being said the show only ever describes it as city sized

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That makes sense. Although I wonder if it's also in some background info somewhere. They specify that sort of thing a lot of times.

This website puts it in at 9.6km too.

Well I'll be rewatching DSC very soon so I can definitely report back on that

Excellent. I'll be interested to know what you find out!

Start on the far left. “Real in objects” Should be “reel in objects”

Etc
