I had to look it up but there is a legit reference to FAMK.
Jamestown Base goes online in 1973 and undergoes a series of expansions.
In The Expanse (S5E1), a sign advises people to visit history Jamestown Base, est. 1973.
Imagine finishing FAMK with Solomon Epstein showing his wife his idea for a new type of engine.
I really hope we get the last few expanse books as a movie trilogy with the TV series actors in like 5 years so the actors can age appropriately for the time gap accounting for anti aging meds. Maybe ignore TV series actual ending and recast certain actors so we can get some of the best parts of the last few books.
I don’t think they really ended the TV show, I want to believe that they are leaving a gap of a few years like you said. It was unfortunate about the actor being a sleazy dickbag and needing to write his character out but gives us an opportunity to bring book characters that might not have been reasonable to have originally in the show but now could work because Alex is dead. I don’t think a recast would work because of the chemistry and everyone having to fake the banter as if it is the exact same person meanwhile everyone watching has to ignore the dissonance of the new actor.
I just wrapped up For All Mankind, having just finished the expanse books. It fits so perfectly. I have no notes, 100% agreement.
