science fiction
The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.
Expedition 33
The name Expedition 33 does tend to have that sci-fi movie feeling, but this is an expedition that really happened. It was a vital stage in human space flight aboard the station. Members from various countries participated during this mission to perform high-class scientific research.

Are We Becoming Cyborgs? A Look at Humanity’s Future in a Tech-Obsessed World
The last 100 years have been downright crazy when it comes to technological progress. I mean, for thousands of years, humans slowly invented things, but nothing, nothing compares to what we’ve seen in just a single century. We went from horse-drawn carriages to landing on the moon, and now we’ve got phones that can basically do everything… except, unfortunately, make us a sandwich.

What if we travel at the speed of light?
Imagine strapping yourself into a spaceship, its engines thrumming with power, and leaving Earth behind. You accelerate, faster and faster, slicing through the void of space. What would the universe look like if you approached the speed of light? How would reality warp before your eyes?

"No pity! No remorse! No fear!”
Trillions of micro-organisms, falling like dust motes, settled over the once bustling Hive City like a slow rolling fog, blurring anything beyond a few skyscrapers into a haze of bleak gray. The scent of mold and dead things, the echoes of what my rebreather missed, filled my nostrils. I tried to get a signal to the marines. Nothing. My arm shook as I tried to broadcast any message, but it was no use. Damn it. The spores must block coms. The scouting party had been split for roughly twelve minutes now. The atmospheric interference was too intense for any chance of rescue, but if I could reach higher ground...

Revenge Of The Words
I used to be a pilot. I flew missions in World War Two, dammit. Later, I flew for a major airline. Then I served in the police department in Los Angeles. That got me into my lifelong love for writing. Scripts, mostly. I was not too shabby. You might have seen some of my work. But that was so long ago. So very long ago. Now? Let's just say I'm not the man I used to be. Things have changed so much since those heady days of early television. Back then the best writing in my estimation had something important to say. We wrote morality plays disguised as space opera. It mattered then. Our takes on our world slipped past the network execs because we set it in the far future. My greatest achievement was almost derailed by the executives because they thought my script was too smart for the twelve year old mind. So, I rewrote it and kept the original pilot within. It got on the air, and the moral still stood. Things have changed so much. Even my own profession has seen such transformations that I hardly recognize what people are writing now.

Echoes of Tomorrow
In the year 2047, the world had grown quieter—not in sound, but in isolation. Though cities continued to buzz with activity, voices were fewer and more distant. Drones flitted through the sky, holographic billboards blinked in colorful rhythms, but somewhere beneath the surface, people had grown more alone. Conversations shortened and interactions became more fleeting. In this world, where technology acted both as a link and a divide, a lonely programmer named Lara made a surprising connection. Lara lived in an apartment in Neo-London, a world of glass and steel.
