I saw on the science channel yesterday the story of deep space one. Interestingly enough these top phd scientist stated they watched startrek and this led then to science. Everything I learned I learned from startrek. All the disciplines and subdisciplines. The ion drive was invented in WW11 by the Germans. Yet as I understand they the scientist have beamed two atoms from one place to another. I think its interesting on how a science fiction show has promoted the new applications like the ion drive and computer enhancements to todays science.

 

I now understand how these science fiction movies promote science for the future. Any good science fiction movies out there today? Seen hitchikers guide to the galaxy. New sf fan and science buff.
