Some of science fiction's appeal is shared with other sorts of literature: if one of the aims of writing fiction is to explore the human condition, science fiction allows literature to explore that even further.  Science fiction can place humanity in situations it cannot or has not encountered , test our identity and inner nature against new and extreme conditions. How do human values and emotions change or endure in a far-flung future? How much can we change and still be human? One example of humanity in extremis I often think of is  Gateway  by Frederik Pohl, a novel; but some short stories online that explore this are "Wind from a Dying Star" by David Levine and the recent "I'm Alive, I Love You, I'll See You in Reno" by Vylar Kaftan. Science fiction allows us to compare humanity against other intelligences.  While some might maintain there are other sentient species on our planet -- chimpanzees and dolphins are often nominated -- there is no specie...

I'm answering on behalf of my dad who grew up on a farm. He grew up farming banty chickens and ducks, (among other farm animals and crops). Banty chickens are excellent and responsible egg layers, and will not give up until their eggs hatch. When they have a “miscarriage”, they just don't stop trying to lay them. Ducks, on the other hand, quickly loose interest in laying their eggs and wander off. In order to sustain the ducks, my dad’s job was to collect duck eggs and place them under banty chickens. When they hatched, the banty chickens couldn't tell the difference. But the poor ducklings had a hard time understanding “mom”. Banty chickens dart around eating insects; the ducklings’ natural instinct is to follow their mother in a neat line. Now imagine a bunch of ducklings trying to make a neat line behind their difficult to follow, zigzagging mother. Oh, and then comes drinking from the pond. A banty chicken will lead her chicks to the pond, and everyone takes a fe...

However, there are THREE 100% POSITIVE PROOFS that the Apollo missions actually landed on the moon. In order to be 100% positive proof, the evidence needs to COME FROM an INDEPENDENT SOURCE, such as China, Japan, Or Russia, or it need to be able to be VERIFIED AS TRUE by an INDEPENDENT SOURCE. The following proof meets that criteria: 1. The surface of the moon is currently being 3D mapped by satellites, and the surface mapping data exactly matches the photos the astronauts took. The moon-hoax people say that the landings were faked on a sound stage and the backgrounds were painted by a Hollywood special effects artist. The problem with that theory is that the artist would not have been able to paint the exact shape of the hills and valleys at the lunar sites, because that information was unknown. The technology for gathering three dimensional relief mapping of the lunar surface did not exist in 1969.  So the artist’s rendering would have had to come from his own i...

My 2019 Forecast Posted: 24 Dec 2018 04:46 PM PST After an absence of a few years, I have decided to offer a few of my 'predictions' for the upcoming year. That being stated, the current politically charged atmosphere makes it difficult to alleviate that factor from my forecast...though, I will try my best to limit my civic opinions. Anyway, here we go: - I feel that the upcoming year will signal the beginning of an unique open-mindedness to the future of our planet. In particular, how we view our relationship with EBEs and how environmental / climate changes directly affect that liaison. - Seismic & volcanic activity concerns me in the following areas: Sicily & southern Italy, Commander Islands east of Kamchatka, Pacific rim of southern Mexico, Cascadia Subduction Zone. - I told a dear friend in 2017 that I believe that there will be an enormous change in the U.S. government in late Autumn 2019. I'm sticking with that prediction. I fear internal unr...
