Is Unobtainium Real or Fictional?

[MalloryCA]

Hi everyone, I followed a FB link to this group. I needed such a group years ago. I prefer handwavium than actual science science because real science makes my brain hurt and then new stuff sort of blooms in there and that's distracting for all my moldy old stuff that is nicely worn in. ::waves::

Hello and welcome,

I hope you will have fun anyway. Although I must say the humor in our comic department is sometimes a bit nerdy. But the non handwaving science is worth reading.

Stay curious!

Ahaha I should've known it was fictitious. Well, now I do.
