[Detail] The PDCs have counter-thrusters when they're firing (dubvee.org)

Just noticing this for the first time. When the PDCs fire, there is a counter-thruster to keep the recoil from affecting the ship's attitude / maneuverability. I love little attentions to detail like that.

I just caught that, though not in action (will keep an eye out for it though). Just started season 4, and Alex mentions when it's getting installed that it needs to be synced with the engine or else they're gonna get thrown to the ceiling every time it fires (or something along those lines).
