In the Captain Marvel film, Carol was able to build an FTL modem from Earth Radio Shack parts to contact her Kree buddies. The Avengers/Guardians/Carol use FTL hologram phones in Endgame to have a conference call - Marvel could have told Rocket how to build it if he didn't know already. | |

| May 9, 2019 at 1:34 | comment | added | Rob | @user1 - Didn't we see Nebula communicate with the Guardians, telling them to meet her on Titan, in Infinity War? While there's no indication how far away they were, given that Thanos told his "children" to meet him on Titan, it's likely Nebula was in that vicinity when she sent the message. (She ran over Thanos on Titan with a small pod, which more likely than not was not an interstellar craft.) Given that, it does seem that long-distance communication is certainly an available tech. It is possible that the Guardians could have and did check in with Rocket about going to Titan. | |
| May 8, 2019 at 23:53 | comment | added | user1 | @Azor Ahai there's just no evidence in the MCU that the guardians have that kind of communication technology. You can argue that it can't be disproved but there's any number of wild suppositions that can't be directly refuted. | |
| May 8, 2019 at 22:28 | comment | added | Harper - Reinstate Monica | @Wmbuch It didn't. Carol Danvers just showed up like she owned the place, and nobody went "OMG a flying sparkly girl just landed our missing spaceship in our front lawn", they just interacted in a familiar manner. Suggesting they'd already been introduced, surely at the "Where's Fury" scene. I would imagine a fuller scene was intended, but cut for time. | |
| May 8, 2019 at 22:05 | comment | added | Azor Ahai -him- | @user1 We don't know that. Rocket literally fixes ships by spraying them with a magic fixing gun and Nebula goes to use some sort of communicator in the pod when she gets kidnapped by Thanos. (And no one said Earth and Titan are in different galaxies). | |
| May 8, 2019 at 21:42 | comment | added | user1 | They had the time but not the means. Sending intergalactic messages would be problematic under even the best circumstances. | |
| May 8, 2019 at 18:55 | comment | added | Azor Ahai -him- | @user1 Unless they kept each other updated off-screen. There would be plenty of time to check in | |
| May 8, 2019 at 17:50 | comment | added | user1 | Rocket wouldn't know that Quill and company had gone to Titan. At their last meeting Rocket went with Thor to Nidavellir and the others were headed for Knowhere. | |
| May 8, 2019 at 16:43 | comment | added | Mike S | Thanks for this comment. This whole time I just assumed she ran in to Tony on her way to Earth for the first time, and was kind of annoyed that her eventual arrival on earth in Endgame contradicted her "Where's Fury?" moment in the Captain Marvel post credits. I somehow had failed to put together that her finding Tony was after she had already established herself with the Avengers | |
