评分LD&R中最令我回味的一集，原著很好地补充了细节（比如超光速旅行的背景设定），某些剧情也更 make sense（比如叫Suzy起床的动机以及Greta披露真相的动机），结局一样绝望。科幻粉值得一读。
评分##好绝，部分内容还是需要有学科背景才可能比较读得懂吧，不过跟三体一样，并不妨碍整体美感的传达。爱死机其中一集的原著，看了动画再来看会比较好理解，真的一绝（开始摇头+拍手叫绝）。导致我之后好几次为爱鼓掌的时候都在放那首bgm（笑）
评分##beyond the aquila rift: “Don’t hate me for lying to you. It was done out of kindness.
评分##设定太棒了，尤其天鹰座裂隙之外这篇。母巢里看似可怕的蜘蛛实则是怀有悲悯之心的“母虫”为因句法等原因偏航进入天鹰座裂隙之外的迷途者提供情感支持，颅内模拟的形式让大家逐渐接受现实，互相取暖。
评分##“Because you don't have to see it. You can stop now, where you are, with an idea of the truth. An inkling. But you don't have to open your eyes.”
评分##出自具有天文物理研究和工作经验背景的资深当代知名科幻小说作家之手，《天鹰座裂隙之外》在2005年发布，其科学设定和故事背景可谓有着重要影响力，引人入胜，承前启后。
评分##“Because you don't have to see it. You can stop now, where you are, with an idea of the truth. An inkling. But you don't have to open your eyes.”
评分##英文原版有些术语很是晦涩，但是所蕴含的人性光辉超越了一切
