Netflix’s 3 Body Problem has sparked fascination and controversy.Based on the 2008 novel by Liu Cixin and brought to the small screen by Game of Thrones creators D.B. Weiss and David Benioff, the series tells the story of an impending alien invasion of Earth.The show portrays some science that left some viewers with questions and some historical events that have upset some people in China.Global News spoke to experts to separate fact from fiction and history from hysteria.A three-body problem refers to three astronomical bodies, like planets or suns, and how each object’s gravity impacts the other’s orbits.But it’s easiest to understand if we start with a two-body problem.“The closer objects are, the stronger is the gravitational pull,” York University professor emeritus of physics and astronomy Paul Delaney said.The sun is about a million times larger than the Earth, according to NASA, and so its gravity holds our planet in orbit around it.The orbit is stable, making it predictable, Delaney said.This is a two-body problem, just like the moon and the Earth, and it’s a problem that’s been solved since Sir Isaac Newton’s work on gravity.“We can theoretically figure out where (the two objects) will be as a function of time,” Delaney told Global News.“There are complications with angular momentum and tidal forces and friction,” he said, speaking from Tuscon, Ariz., “but to all practical intents and purposes, the moon will stay in a stable orbit.”There are other planets in the solar system and the moon orbits Earth.

The bulk of Earth’s water, about 97%, is in salty oceans and thus useless for drinking or growing food. Of the 3% that is fresh, most is locked in ice sheets and glaciers, many of which are melting rapidly into the oceans thanks to climate change. A relative few drops of fresh water are available in ponds, lakes and rivers, which are easily accessible but also vulnerable to pollution, overuse and drought. Humanity’s biggest source of fresh water — representing just 0.8% of Earth’s total water — is in underground aquifers. Decades of drought, pollution and overuse are shrinking even that precious supply, and rising sea levels threaten to spoil even more of it with saltwater incursions. A recent survey of groundwater levels at hundreds of wells worldwide found that 71% have fallen since the start of the 21st century. Groundwater loss worsened at more than half of the studied wells during that time.

Nirav Sheth, CEO-Institutional Equities, Emkay Global Financial Services, says: “We are in a very fortunate situation in terms of the earnings trajectory. My earnings have almost doubled in the last three years and I am talking about the largecap sector. The macros are solid in terms of the outlook on the current account deficit, rupee, interest rates, earnings. And when you have got all the cylinders firing, you generally do not expect valuations to come cheap. You will have to take some level of risk. So sitting where I am today in terms of what we can see, I would go out and say that India could end up in bubble territory in the next three, four, five years in the emerging market universe. At the start of March, there was talk in the market that seasonally March turns out to be volatile because of a lot of adjustment happening in advance tax numbers, then a lot of leverage guys do reshuffling and usually it is a bit volatile. But the big factor that came out is that in net-net, people made a lot of gains this fiscal. This is the eighth year in a row that we are seeing positive returns from the market. Do you see the construct of the market being easy in the new fiscal year or should investors’ return expectations be moderated this year? Nirav Sheth: To answer your first question, I am very constructive on the economy; maybe constructive is not the right word. I am terribly bullish on the trajectory of the economy for the next several years, as we can see today.
