The astronomical arrangement of the stars is rather unlikely.  Double binaries are pretty rare due to their instability.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

They are rare, but they do occur.
Epsilon Lyrae for example.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

:huh: Text is a bit small, but I can read it.

It's 2000x1350, how much bigger do you want it?

Those are Class A stars.  The stars in your graphic have to stay together long enough to evolve complex life, which is a very long time indeed.

The Milky Way has 300 billion stars, and there are hundreds of billions of galaxies. When the numbers are so big, improbable things occur.

Too many improbable things happening there.

Finished the series a couple of months ago.  Ending was kinda eh.  Few things were left unresolved that I didn't like.

Yet they're all possible. If you want to be pedantic why not bitch about the impossible stuff in the show like the FTL.

Who says they evolved complex life?

So the text is readable, I can't make it out at all. Zoom right in and it goes fuzzy.

Perhaps individually, but all together?

Besides, how would I know there's FTL in the show?

Zoom in with view a couple of times and it should be big enough and clear enough to be read. Not exactly easily, but you shouldn't be struggling. Maybe you need glasses.

The favored crossover on the net seems to be Stargate.

I'd like to jam a cattle prod into anybody making such a crossover.
