What Is Science Fiction?
As the pictures suggests, science fiction takes place in settings and times out of this world, literally. For example, it might take place on a spaceship three thousand years in the future or it could be based on time travel and be traveling sixty-five million years ago. There is a difference between fantasy and fiction though. Fantasy is something that could never ever happen under any circumstance; however, fiction is something that could possibly happen in the future or is being developed right now in the present. Characters of science fiction can include aliens, robots, and humans, or a hybrid of them. These characters can also consist of abilities such as mind control or telepathy. Science fiction stretches the possibilities of everything we know.
