A Look at Which Science Fiction Franchise Has the Most Realistic Artificial Gravity

In the latest episode of PBS Space Time, host Gabe Perez-Giz looks at which franchise has the most realistic artificial gravity in science fiction. Perez-Giz immediately throws out franchises that use anything but a rotational system to generate gravity, because it is currently the only realistic means we have to simulate Earth-like gravity in space.

Several sci-fi franchises like HaloBabylon 5, and 2001: A Space Odyssey all use rotationally generated gravity, but some manage to do so in a more believable way than others.
