Everything I Think I See -- Part 1: The Science of Observing
You've probably heard people say, "Life is what you make of it." Or how about, "Life is but a dream." In the years to come, science might just prove them right. In Part 1 of 3, find out what quantum theory has to say about this interesting topic and how we may, in fact, create our own reality. It's all science that frequently makes its way into our favorite SF stories. quantum theory • quantum mechanics • multiple universes • the heisenberg uncertainty principle • max planck
Everything I Think I See -- Part 2: From Fiction's Watchtower
In part 2 of 3 we take a look at how the writers of <i>Star Trek</i> have incorporated real-life science into the series. Featured are the DS9 episode "If Wishes Were Horses" and the TNG episode "All Good Things..." plus an examination of transporters and torpedoes. star trek • science fiction • sf • sci-fi • science fiction and society
