Exolore: facts-based fictional worldbuilding Avatar's Pandora with Jasper William Cartwright
There's a second Avatar movie coming out, so I invited super-fan Jasper Cartwright to refresh me on the rules of this hit world. We talk about gravity's effects on biology, the wonders of Unobtanium, and the importance of consistency in worldbuilding.
HOSTED by Dr. Moiya McTier (@GoAstroMo), astrophysicist and folklorist
