Scientific accuracy

The Expanse was widely praised for its scientific realism and technical accuracy, with executive producer Naren Shankar — a former PhD student in applied engineering — being widely credited for effectively applying his knowledge of physics and engineering. The show's depiction of stealth technology, uncontrolled decompression, the vacuum of space, and spacecraft propulsion were singled out for praise, with other reviewers arguing that the show effectively prepared viewers for future scientific developments.
