Starfleet General Order 7 was a directive that forbade contact with the planet Talos IV. It specifically stated, "No vessel under any condition, emergency or othe...
Is there some meaning to that symbolic message? If yes, then what is that?
I read this short story maybe 10-12 years ago, about an explorer who discovers or goes looking for a mysterious tribe, I think in South America or possibly Africa. There might be something about shrunken heads or they know the secret of making them. He refers to their queen as a ‘Venus’ with da...

We see Sam revealing Jon's true identity to him at the crypts of Winterfell. There he refers to him as Aegon the Sixth.

Am I missing something?

In Infinity War, when Thor first talks to the Guardians, he told them that Thanos killed half the people on his ship. Untrue. He killed everyone except Thor. Nobody was moving except for Thor and Loki, and then Loki got killed. Thanos then blew up the ship. Nobody was alive on that ship except Th...
In Marvel's The Punisher season 2 episode 3 after the shootout at Larkville county
Why did he kill her? Was that because she messed up (and more than one time) or he disapproved her plan or what?
In season 07, last episode, we saw that the Night King broke the Wall and invade Castle Black with all its troop and White Walkers.
Maybe I haven't caught it, but how could the Night King break the Wall but was not able to do that in the past?

I used to get "upset" (though that is too strong a term) when I got downvoted without comment. If my answer isn't good enough then I'd like to know why. Not only does it improve the answer for the OP but it improves my knowledge too.
Where the down-vote has been explained I've found it useful & ...

In the picture below, the communicators buttons and pattern in the center differ from each other. Was there any direct intent to make them look different from although still similar to each other? I understand it could be random but if so then why keep the middle button the same? Remember, they d...

I want to know here is there any logic, law or rule where Thanos determines that these set of people will die. As in the movie some people get died while others were alive.
Is there any dna-algorithm or anything likes that which removes half of the population or it is just remove half of the wo...
At the very end of Philosopher's Stone we are told the following:
notes were handed out to all students, warning them not to use magic over the holidays ("I always hope they'll forget to give us these," said Fred Weasley sadly);
This makes it seem like not giving out the notes would have ma...

WARNING: this question is about the latest novel in the Gaunt's Ghosts series by Dan Abnett.

I'm not too far in to the series at the moment, but so far every time someone has ordered something on the replicator it tells them about its nutritional properties. Why would it do this?
I know the palantír can be used to see afar or communicate with other palantíri, but is there a device, character, or magical ability that allows one character to possess the consciousness and/or body of another being?
In S08E01 of Game of Thrones, we see this message:
We have seen this several times, the symbol drawn with horse heads, the stones around the weirwood where white walkers are created and in some caves, drawn by Children of the Forest.
Do we know the meaning behind this symbol? Does it or some...
