August 25, 2019: Science Fiction My definition
From my knowledge Science fiction is better known as Sci-fi is experimenting, discovering and displaying things that are not human-like. For better instances the first thing that comes into my mind when i think of Sci-fi is the tv network. They are known for showing some creepy yet interesting thats that draw in peoples attention. I know it has a-lot to do with the imagination and what people can interpret and I think it has a-lot to do with science hence the name.

August 25, 2019: Science Fiction What have I learned ?
What I discovered from watching the video The Truth About Science Fiction. Is that when the 2 worlds collide history is made. When i first thought of Sci-Fi i thought of just aliens and crazy things. Just like the video stated cloning, someone walking on the moon simply started out as an idea for writers. The writers of Sci-Fi are known as history predictors. I had no idea no one actually sat and came up with the idea of someone walking on the moon that it was on a show or from readings. They kind of got their ideas from predictions and made it happen, that was really interesting to hear. Another interesting fact I didn't know about was I never knew that H.G Wells one of the fathers of science coined the term Atomic Bomb. Last but not least I was really taken back when they narrator stated that the first animal was a sheep that was successfully cloned, the fact that science really successfully cloned an animal in 1997 is mind boggling. They transferred a nucleus from an adult to produce an identical infant. I can definitely agree that cloning of humans doesn't sound to far fetched if they are doing it to animals. I really learned alot from watching the documentary it opened my mind to let me know that Sci-Fi is much bigger than a tv network that shows movies with aliens with 11 heads. It's a lifestyle that people live by to keep evolving everything in today's time.
