Definition of Science Fiction?
Re: Re: Definition of Science Fiction?
#15
Despite the insane power level in his books, E.E. Doc Smith
In one of his stories, he came up with an idea on how to keep various spaceships communicating during a battle. During World War II, an admrial heard about this idea in Smith's story. He read it and implemented the idea for the US Navy.
That theory of battle quickly became fact.
One science fiction story slid away from Sci-fi and into horror: Frankenstein
