Protomolecule series part 2. What was the ring that it made? Please subscribe! - http://bit.ly/PetePeppers The protomolecule was sent to Sol system by an advanced alien civilization that we refer to as the Ring Builders. This name comes from the fact that after absorbing enough biomass by hijacking the lives of the population of Eros station, the protomolecule constructed a giant ring beyond Uranus. It did this by crashing Eros into the surface of Venus, continuing to build, and then eventually emerging as a giant mechanical craft that resembled a squid. This flew out past the inner planets and completed its final assembly as a wormhole ring gate. This is part two of the series. You can watch part one here -The EXPANSE - The Protomolecule Explained Part 3 on the investigator is here - The EXPANSE The Investigator & Bullet Expl... When you pass through the ring you transit to an area known as the ring hub. The location of the hub is unknown, but it connects 1300 gates into the Ring Network. These gates all lead to habitable systems and their existence changes things drastically for the characters in The Expanse. The network was shut down when humanity first discovered it, but with the help of James Holden the protomolecule created Miller is able to turn it back open. After that the gates are open for transit between systems. The entire Sol System in The Expanse will never be the same after the Ring Network appeared. Now that there are 1300 habitable systems to colonize through the rings, Mars and their generations long terraforming project are no longer viable. The Ring Gates, the Ring Network, and the Ring Station were all created by the Ring Builders. Their civilization was far more advanced than humans, and they were able to use protomolecule probes to create the network. This all happened two billion years ago in the Expanse universe. Holden learns from Miller that they were wiped out by unknown aggressors. They created a hive mind he can access, but he learns that they’ve been rendered extinct. Let us know what theories you have about the protomolecule, and how you think that part of the story will end. If you’ve read ahead in the book series, please make sure to mark any book spoilers. This Expanse protomolecule video explains everything you need to know about the ring gates, the ring station, the ring network, and the ring builders. It explains the history of protomolecule technology in the story, and a discussion on how the ring gates change our solar system.
