I discussed this off site, but I’m starting to see my mistake. The Japanese dub calls that body of space they’re in an intersection of time and space while the dub and guide call it a rift.
This is an intersection right. Now think of the green line as space, the purple line as time, and the middle as the area where spatial distortion lies.
Since time and space meet it’s easy to suggest Solaris is omnipresent with the intersection instead of outside of it, like how others previously claimed.
My bad guys :/ I think we should strictly stick with the Japanese dub instead of the guide as there are too many contradictions.
