When Kirino passes on the message, the reply is almost instant: Mars is вЂњprepared to go it alone.вЂќ Avasarala isnвЂ™t into the idea she thinks itвЂ™s exactly how Marco expects them to react, and says UN forces wonвЂ™t join the plan. Unsurprisingly, Mars - a place where military culture has reigned supreme for generations - is ready to strike back, with a plan to put MarcoвЂ™s strategically crucial Medina Station out of commission and take back control of the Ring itself. They also know the Belters left on Ceres wonвЂ™t easily turn on Marco.

These folks know the mining charges, which killed several people from all sides, were Belter in origin - more than likely set by Marco Inaros and his Free Navy on their way out the door. Station administrator Nico Sanjrini is trying to keep the Belter faithful in line, while also noting thereвЂ™s no telling who actually caused the disaster, and then begins leading the assembled in a rousing chant of вЂњBeltalowda!вЂќ The camera pulls back and we realise weвЂ™re watching a news report alongside the Ceres-adjacent Mars and Earth leaders, including Admiral Kirino and UN Secretary-General Avasarala. Speaking of uh-ohs, Ceres Station is in turmoil after the water tank explosions we saw last week. ThereвЂ™s a shot of the glowing blue thing orbiting Laconia, and then we see Cara wheeling XanвЂ™s body into the forest, and, wellвЂ¦ you just know sheвЂ™s hoping the вЂњ strange dogвЂќ will be able to resurrect her brother like it did the dead bird. When you think about it like that it doesnвЂ™t fix anything, but it makes losing them hurt less.вЂќ Laconia is helping him fill that void, and DuarteвЂ™s job, he says, is to вЂњkeep us safe, or at least try.вЂќ This tender but seriously cryptic moment is interrupted by the entrance of CortГЎzar - the protomolecule scientist, frantically chaotic as always - who bursts in tell Duarte вЂњmy new coordination protocol returned a coherent reply pattern,вЂќ which is big enough news that the admiral hurries away to see for himself. I needed to make it a sacrificeвЂ¦ itвЂ™s to give something up and make it sacred. He soon steers the conversation toward dealing with grief, equating CaraвЂ™s sadness over losing her brother to his own sadness over losing вЂњthe dream of Mars,вЂќ because вЂњhaving something you love that you canвЂ™t protect is terrifying.вЂќ To cope, he tells her, he вЂњneeded something to make it more than just death. Duarte says he hasnвЂ™t been to Earth, either as book readers well know, he is from Mars. O of course, thatвЂ™s not happening nowвЂ¦ is there even a Paris left? - but the little girl says sheвЂ™s never been to Earth, and she doesnвЂ™t care about not going there. He breaks the ice by talking to Cara about Paris - she was supposed to be heading there with her scientist parents after their time on Laconia. After all that build-up, he turns out to beвЂ¦ sort of odd, but rather friendly. (We learn he was hit by a speeding car - perhaps driven by the same person who almost mowed over Cara back in episode one? We also learn that the culprit will almost certainly face a firing squad as punishment.) As a melancholy Cara watches over XanвЂ™s body, sheвЂ™s suddenly approached by Admiral Duarte, someone weвЂ™ve heard mentioned along the way but havenвЂ™t met until now.

So far its connection to the main events of season six has been tangential, but in вЂњRedoubtвЂќ we meet an important figure from The Expanse books in an exposition-heavy scene that takes place as CaraвЂ™s family mourns the sudden death of her little brother, Xan. I think we've named everything with a population over a million now.By now, itвЂ™s no surprise we begin with the Laconia storyline. Possibly smaller than Ceres too, it's not clear.ДЄll the other moons orbiting the outer planets: Tiny outpost populations at most. Also a great place to be pregnant, apparently.Д¬allisto: Not much to go on, but this is probably the next biggest settlement after Ganymede. Ganymede is the breadbasket of the belt and outer planets region, and produces a huge amount of food. Ganymede: Can't find an exact number, but it's probably the largest single human-populated zone after Earth and Mars. So I don't know if that population number for the belt is supposed to include the outer planet population or not. The tricky problem is that the terms 'outer planets region' and 'the belt' seem to be occasionally, erroneously used interchangeably, especially when referring to these places as political or cultural units, as one might apply when taking a census. This includes Ceres, Eros, and a handful of other big hubs, in addition to hundreds of smaller stations and mining outposts. Definitely a minority, but a minority sitting on top of by far the biggest mineral resource wealth stores, even if they don't currently control it. The Belt: Somewhere between 50 million and 100 million. Teetering or possibly past the point of sustainability, there.
