The Sky Was Never the Limit  (13+) Science Fiction and the Literature of Ideas #997450 by Robert Waltz

Prompt: The dictionary definition of “science fiction” is “fiction dealing principally with the impact of actual or imagined science upon society or individuals; broadly : literary fantasy including a scientific factor as an essential orienting component” [Webster's Third New International Dictionary, Unabridged. Merriam-Webster, 2002.]

Do you think today's science fiction is tomorrow's science fact?

Yes. I believe today's science fiction is tomorrow's science fact. I say that because I wrote science fiction as a child. I wrote about hand held phones that you could use in a car on a mountain top. Today we call them cell phones. I wrote about using a computer to order groceries. Today we have the Internet. These were science fiction fifty years ago. So today's science fiction will someday be a reality.
