I didn't know where to post, but it's kind of a "Hmmm" question so I took a chance of posting this in the philosophy section, if a better section for this question exist on this forum I hope admins move it there. My question is: you feel theorethical scientists might be blinded by their...

This show premiers tonight at 10 PM. I expect it to be a bunch of hype, but we will see. http://www.scifi.com/ufohunters/ I think it is the first regular series to address the subject of UFOs exclusively.

Hello, I am a student currently finishing my compulsory education in school and I have always been interested in science and literature, and so the next obvious step would be a love of SciFi. I often find myself getting ideas for novels that will never come to fruition, but I know have one...

U.S. joint forces' latest recruitment slogan is "Citizen Soldier." Isn't that a phrase from Starship Troopers? 'The path to citizenship – concretely through military service – is a key theme in Heinlein’s novel. "Citizenship is an attitude, a state of mind, an emotional conviction that the...

I have read many other guides to ftl in SciFi, and I had origionally fitted in a form of hyperdrive, which would simply avoid the issue by ignoring the...

Scifi show "Firefly" Ok unfortunately my computer TV started showing Firefly. Apparently bunch of underage nerds got together and voted and now I'm forced to watch this instead of something that remotely qualified to be scifi before it. Am I the only person who thinks this is by far the worst...

I'm working on writing some hard science fiction stuff, and I have a question I was hoping you guys could help me with. See, my training is primarily in math and chemistry, and it's been quite some time since I've really had any dealings with more than just the most basic concepts in general...

Hello folks. The hinge for a story I am writing is based on a theory that I can't back. It's not entirely original, but bear with me. With this machine, you could recreate any combination of energy that has ever existed - and therefore any object/being. The only thing I have going...

After 18 months of http://www.scaperoute.com/savefarscape/onlinekit/multimedia/mmmain.html. Probably the best reason to watch this is to get the SciFi channel to stop wasting their money on sub-B "original" movies they're constantly spewing out (the classic Pythons 2, or the masterpiece...
