The statue of Liberty is copper but it turned green due to oxidation. I guess on the other side they found a way to prevent that and keep it looking nice and shiny. Seems like that would be easy for them considering the level of technology.

I was expecting more screenshots of the other side. I am disappoint. :p

A few things I was wondering. I wonder why they moved the DOD HQ to the Statue of liberty and not to a bigger office building, since the Pentagon was/is one of the largest office buildings in the world. Why does their Statue look different, was it hit on 9/11 or that's just the way theirs is meant to look. It seems obvious they have some sort of bacta tank technology on their side, but I wonder if they have devices to bring people back to life. The dialogue at the start of the episode seemed to imply those 4 had died before as a result of doing a previous quarantine and yet didn't seem all that fazed at the thought of possibly dying again. Finally I'd like to see what happened in their Boston that they spoke briefly about at the start and I want to see more of the "blight" they mentioned earlier in the season.

The Statue of Liberty there (and here) is made of copper. Looks like in the Alternate Universe, they keep it shined up nice. Here's a question though, what is the 'First People' in the opening 'Red' intro to this weeks episode?

That stood out for me too when I watched it. In North America "First People" might refer to the Native Americans but I think they meant something else with that. :p

Unless history played out quite differently when the Europeans first sailed over. After all Martin Luther King Jr. was on their money.

the more you hear about the world, the more I feel kinda sorry for them. They already said the blight was destroying plant life in their world and coffee for one thing was very rare. I'm sure there's other stuff in the world that's been destroyed that may end up being directly traced back to when Walter originally crossed over.

any guess on why the Statue of Liberty is Bronze? or did Ghostbusters 2 really happen? :laugh:

The Statue of Liberty gets its green color from the natural patina formed on its copper surface.

    • Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027

      Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027 by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Since the launch of the iPhone Air, we’ve heard conflicting rumors and speculation about the fate of Apple's ultra-thin iPhone. As it turns out, Apple is not going to ditch the Air model from its lineup, and a second generation is already planned for next year. As reported by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, citing people familiar with the matter, the second-generation iPhone Air is planned for spring 2027 and is poised to receive notable upgrades. The upgraded model, codenamed V62, will reportedly feature an additional rear camera for ultrawide photography. The new camera system is said to be in advanced testing within Apple. Gurman also says the second-generation iPhone Air could offer better battery life, either through a larger battery or software improvements. The overall design of the device is expected to remain unchanged. A single rear camera and below-average battery life were among the biggest drawbacks of the first-generation iPhone Air despite its $999 price tag. Hopefully, the next iPhone Air will fare better. Gurman also added that the device will be powered by the A20 Pro processor. The release of the second-generation iPhone Air in spring 2027 aligns with previous reports that Apple is shaking up the iPhone release cycle. Accordingly, the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and the company’s first foldable iPhone are expected to launch in September 2026, followed by the iPhone 18 and the new iPhone Air roughly six months later. The 20th-anniversary iPhone is also reportedly planned for fall 2027. Meanwhile, if you’re planning to buy the refreshed iPhone Air, Apple might surprise you with a new price tag. As we reported today, CEO Tim Cook confirmed that price increases are on the way due to rising memory chip costs and a severe shortage. With that in mind, analysts estimate that the base iPhone 18 Pro could cost as much as $1,399 this year. The current $999 iPhone Air may not be immune to those price hikes.
