The Science of 3 Body Problem, Explained

3 Body Problem sucked viewers into its orbit from the moment it dropped on Netflix late last month. Joining the ranks of other Netflix sci-fi originals, 3 Body Problem stays true to the format with its timeline-jumping, convoluted plot, and heady concepts rooted in physics, cosmology, and technology. Throw in a bunch of dazzling interstellar montages, gore, and plenty of "will-they-won't-they" romance as a palate cleanser, and fans have found themselves motivated for more reasons than one to keep up.
