Logistics [Short Sci-Fi Story]

Logistics

Yes, when the humans arrived in the Coalition they brought themselves, and their ships, and their weapons. Those were all very impressive. They showed up with positively gigantic starships – easily two to four times larger than anyone else. When asked, the humans just looked at them, then back to us and said “why not make them big? Don’t they look great?”

We could think of a few reasons, but they didn’t seem to care about those.

But that’s not what I want to talk about. Do you know what was the most amazing, galaxy-changing paradigm they brought with them?

How do kidney transplants work?

In 1954, Joseph Murray attempted a type of kidney swap that no doctor had tried before. The surgery was a success, and the patient would go on to live with the transplanted organ thanks to one key factor: it came from his identical twin. 70 years later, nearly 100,000 kidneys are transplanted annually in the US alone. So how does this surgery work today?

Dig into the science of how kidney transplants work, how donors are matched and find out how this surgery saves lives.

Echoes of the Wasteland: How Three Notes Defined Fallout’s Apocalypse

Fallout Music

Inon Zur’s haunting three-note motif for Fallout is more than music—it’s the soul of a broken world. Across Fallout 3, Fallout 4, Fallout 76, and now the 2024 Fallout TV series, these three notes echo through the radioactive wasteland, a call that every survivor knows by heart. Just three notes, but they cut through the silence of a ruined America, invoking memories of shattered dreams, resilience, and flickering hope.

As you’ll hear in the Polygon’s video below, Zur’s search for the Fallout sound was no easy journey. He first tried a Turkish duduk—a mournful woodwind steeped in ancient tones. But Bethesda’s Todd Howard felt it was too ornate for the gritty desolation of the Fallout world. So, Zur stripped the music down, creating the now-famous C, E flat, and E sequence—a stark, metallic sound, almost like the whisper of a dying world. Howard instantly knew he’d struck gold.

If you’ve ever felt a chill hearing this theme, you’re not alone. Tune in to see how Zur’s music continues to breathe life into Fallout and why it resonates so deeply with fans, even after all these years.
