science fiction

The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.

"Since the 1943 phenomenon, the world as we know it has been plagued with an immaterial 'cerebral electricity'. Ghost stories and myths became no longer superstitions, but a horrifying reality that we have been forced to recognize. We have since learned that this electricity was not a foreign substance, that it had been with us all along. It had simply revealed itself to us to observe, to understand..." - Interface

Invasion of the Saucer-Men
The curious thing about Invasion of the Saucer Men is that there are no actual flying saucers in it. Instead, the BEMs (Bug-Eyed Monsters, a coin termed by Stephen King in Danse Macabre, when he was discussing this very film) arrive in a crescent-shaped affair with fins or something on the side and flashing lights that employs a meter or two of fishing line as a propulsion system. At any rate, the Army turns out (all four of 'em) to shoot at it, which is highly advisable I might add, when trying to establish friendly contact with just-landed extraterrestrials. (Just ask Klaatu.)

Extraterrestrial beings or Aliens
Enrico Fermi, the renowned Italian physicist, is widely recognized as one of the greatest physicists in history. He played a pivotal role in establishing the fundamental principles of modern physics during the 20th century. Interestingly, despite his significant contributions, Fermi dedicated relatively little time to pondering the Fermi Paradox. In fact, it was merely a passing comment for him. The central question posed by this paradox is: "Where are they?" Here, "they" refers to extraterrestrial beings or aliens. Considering the vast expanse of our galaxy, known as the Milky Way, and the immense scale of the universe, it becomes evident that we inhabit a vast cosmic realm. The Milky Way alone boasts approximately 400 billion suns, with a substantial number of them hosting planetary systems. Consequently, there exists an abundance of habitable space, and more than enough time for civilizations to evolve and flourish. However, the crux of the Fermi Paradox lies in the fact that despite billions of years and countless worlds, we have yet to encounter any concrete evidence of extraterrestrial life within our galaxy. Thus, the paradox persists: Why is this the case?

Hangar 18
Hangar 18 stars Darren McGavin, Robert Vaughn, Gary Collins, John Campanella, and John Hampton, as well as several other notable television actors of the era, in a sci-fi drama about a downed UFO that is scooped up by the government and taken to a supersecret government test facility where they can back engineer it so as not to provide us with free energy, but to advance their guided missile systems and whatnot. Because, baby, aliens or not, WAR IS MONEY.

Hello, Lover
14/788/14 s.d. Hello, Lover, It is so strange, the speed at which everything can change. You know this of course, surely remember the single minute between our weeks on assignment where we both thought, only for the single flash of our own daydreams, that we might be assigned together. I remember the look on your face—the moment you found out of our separation and it was devastating.

Can Time Travel Be Achieved in Reality?
Have you ever imagined the possibility of journeying through time? I am certain that we all have. Perhaps you desire to venture into the past, to witness historical events or even alter them. Alternatively, you may be intrigued by the prospect of glimpsing into the future, to observe how events unfold. Time travel has long been a staple of science fiction, with numerous books and movies exploring its potential benefits and risks. However, the question remains: is time travel truly achievable? And if so, what prerequisites must be met? In order to comprehend the mechanics of time travel, we must first grasp the nature of time itself.

The Outer Limits: "Cold Hands, Warm Heart"
Poor William Shatner! He goes rocketing off to Venus and comes back possessed by the spirit of a space mermaid--a very ugly one to boot. It makes him ice cold, and we know this because he can drink whole boiling cauldrons of coffee, and likes to turn the thermostat up to 90.

Earth Vs. The Flying Saucers
1956 was either a stellar year to be an intergalactic flying saucer menace, or a bad one, depending on your perspective. We have Invasion of the Body Snatchers, Invasion of the Saucer Men, The Thing, The Day the Earth Stood Still, and Earth Vs. The Flying Saucers. Whatever heavy trip the space brothers were laying on us that year (and it had more to do than just cleaning up the environment) the message was delivered by an iron fist in a velvety intergalactic space gauntlet. Or some such.
