Brewster Rockit: Space Guy! is a satirical, retro-futuristic comic strip that chronicles the (mis)adventures of the lantern-jawed, lunkheaded, and sometimes childlike Brewster Rockit, captain of the space station R.U. Sirius, and his crew of misfits. Under Brewster’s brave and eternally-optimistic leadership, Pam is the tough and pragmatic second-in-command, Cliff is the completely unqualified engineer, Dr. Mel is the scheming science officer, Agent X is the mysterious government agent who gives them their orders and hides their existence from the world, and Winky is the cute, luckless kid who manages to get hurt a lot.

No, pillar dancing.

How about galactic south for down and galactic north for up?

Fortunately the R.U. Sirius has that same “magical gravity thingy” that the Starship Enterprise (and all of the space ships in Star Wars) had.

He’s just realized the situation of his gravity.

The “magical gravity thing” was a variation on their “Tractor Beam”. Tractor beams exist today, albeit in miniature form. See: http://www.forbes.com/sites/alexknapp/2013/01/27/scientists-build-a-working-tractor-beam/

To me, down is where gravity pulls me, up is the opposite.
As for Brewster, well, what can I say.

It always amazes me that in Sci-fi films spaceships from different planets are always the same way up.

Safer to go with ‘over there’ or ‘out there.’

In Star Trek there were maybe three or four references, total, to the “everyone in the galaxy flies their ship with the same side up” thing. In one of the movies, Spock says they can defeat Khan in a space battle, because Khan is using inferior “two-dimensional tactics”. Also a couple of times where their “gravity generators” go offline . . .

Why is Brewster hanging upside down from a pole?

As viewed from the northern hemisphere of Earth, up is up, down is down and everything else is wrong. There, problem solved.
