Break out those Granny Smith apples, folks! Dr. Harry Vanderspeigle of SYFY s
Resident Alien has now got his hands on some Grade-A Tellurium, but just what the heck is it? Tellurium is a mineral that finds in a mine in Patience, the show s star, Alan Tudyk, explains to SYFY WIRE. They always talk about The 59! It s this bar, and it s about the 59 miners [who died to save one]. So in that mine, he finds Tellurium . he mixes it up, he heats it, he gets some rust, he gets all sorts of stuff, and then he puts it together and that is what makes his spaceship fly. I m getting pretty technical here, so I don t want to lose you. It s got fly-y properties, and that s what it is.
