Okay, so... first off, I am LOVING this book. Great pace, interesting science, funny.
Spoiler alert...
But I think I've hit a pretty major plot hole...
if the Iridians live in temperatures hotter than the boiling point of water, wouldn't the solder melt? I mean, it depends how much hotter they need, but the book makes it out like it's "waaay hotter".
