Series Review

 I sat this week and watched the Netflix series....'The Three Body Problem' (8 episodes).

Pure science fiction?  Yeah, and it took various twists/turns.

Basic story.....some Chinese gal is dragged in the 1960s into a research project....to send a message out into space, and at some point.....gets a return message.  This return message basically says....don't go any further, or you will invite 'trouble'.

Well....the Chinese gal goes ahead.  

What you have develop is some alien culture that is in need of a new planet, and decides Earth might be a great place.  

The rest of the story dwells over the Earth folks who stumble upon the alien business....some folks die, and there's some attempt by the 8th episode to hinder/halt the arrival of the alien invasion (note, they are about 400 years from the arrival point). 

I have to admit on story value....it's a '10', and does make you ask.....could people accept some alien arrival presently.  

So if you are hooked-up to Netflix....it might be worth watching.
