Thunderbirds are ... oops
Ok, Thundrebirds has never been strong on science but this time the writers really blew it.
They have a tsunami. Ok, those happen. but they have it endangering ships in mid-ocean!!!
sorry guys but tsunamis are only dangerous when they hit shallow water. In mid-ocean they are just a gentle *very long* swell.
If not, we'd lose hundreds of ships every time one happened.
Also, as anybody who's seen video of one knows, they aren't this huge *breaking* wave. More like a tidal bore.

no subject
I wonder if the scriptwriter(s) was thinking about rogue waves, which do affect craft on the open ocean.
Anyway, where are you seeing new Thunderbirds episodes?
