Detour: Titan-bound sci‑fi that prizes believability over flawless accuracy

Space.com chats with Detour co-authors Jeff Rake and Rob Hart about crafting a mind‑bending sci‑fi tale: a Titan mission turns into a homecoming where Earth isn’t what the crew left behind, and the writers emphasize making big ideas feel believable rather than 100% technically correct. They discuss collaborating across TV and novels, near‑future tech with plausible physics, designing the ship with artificial gravity, and leaning into grounded family drama to humanize ambitious concepts. Detour is available now.

"Blue Mesa Reservoir Bridge Closed Indefinitely Over Safety Concerns"

The bridge along U.S. 50 crossing the Blue Mesa Reservoir in Colorado has been closed due to cracking in the T1 Steel used in its construction, leading to a lengthy detour for drivers. Inspectors found a crack in the steel girder midway through the bridge, and there is no estimate on when it will reopen or if repairs are needed. The recommended detour adds hours of travel time, and CDOT is exploring the feasibility of clearing local seasonal routes to reduce detour time for local travelers. While the closure impacts road travel, recreation on the Blue Mesa under the bridge is not affected, and travelers are advised to check COtrip.org for the latest road conditions.
