Yeah, it’s one of those weird things that you don’t think about until someone points it out and then it bothers you…
There was a Sci Fi story I read that was based on a space station where the people who had been there awhile said that you can always spot the newbies 'cause they always line up like magnetic poles.
That’s hilarious. I have asked, with little success, how intergalactic or deep space starships navigate, given that the entire frame of reference is based on moving objects. Where is ‘up’?, and how would I say ‘meet me here’?
Lol. Made me wonder why the ships on sttng were always oriented upwards relative to each other.
