5000 VS 50000 (minor spoilers)

The first decision, the result of the female president's unwillingness to leave anyone behind was the extinction of mankind, if it weren't for Lee's eagerness to become wise. For the second time, she did not hesitate to leave 5,000 people to save 50,000 people. This kind of change is very realistic, and there is only one way to destroy it. In order for more people to survive, sacrifice part. This choice has always been controversial. The "Queen VS Dudley & Stevens" case discussed in the second episode of Justice's public class is essentially the same as this choice: only The whole can survive only by sacrificing some people; the difference is that in this drama, this whole is all mankind. This relatively gives the female president stronger legitimacy for this choice. Utilitarianism overwhelms idealism as a last resort; but it absolutely cannot be said that this choice is not wrong; many interpretations of this famous case just prove that no choice is right in this case. The survivors represented by Galectica can even be said to have become the "dark humans" defined by Liu Cixin's "Three-Body" trilogy-in simple terms, to survive by unscrupulous means or even at the expense of others. Putting ethical propositions in the context of the universe and looking directly at the fierce conflicts of different moral rules is a great pleasure of watching science fiction.

Space opera, solitary boats in space, machines, humans, infiltration and expulsion, escape and pursuit, the extinction of all mankind in the twelve colonies, and the subsequent total war and escape are determined by two locations and three sections (too lazy to count). A structure that can be used to great effect, as a recovery and starter of the whole series, the effect is excellent.
