The book goes into a lot more detail on the Eridians and their culture/biology - worth a read if you want to get more about them.

I plan on reading the book eventually. I just started on Malazan. Hopefully I finish that series this time around.

Weir discussing how Rocky's species works.

Kinda silly alien encounter movie. Far too little science on how these microbes could survive space, how rock creatures could move limbs. Also pretty dumb to have a space faring species not know about radiation and also have them be blind with echolocation a far less viable primary form of sense than photosensitivity. How would those rocks even know there is space and stars? They cant hear them. Dumb feelgood movie.

Watch the video in the post above. That's the author answering literally every question you posed other than how the microbes survived space. Something that's already a pretty well established sci-fi trope.

This a good movie for the kids. Like an old family friendly Spielberg or Disney movie. Not really what I was expecting from trailers but pretty consistent from start to finish an 8/10 movie. Not sure why anyone would care about the science explanation for a movie like this as it’s wildly unrealistic and silly, this isn’t the expanse we are talking about here.

Yeah. It's not even relevant to anything considering the universe caught the flu and is dying out.
