If the experience of science teaches anything, it's that the world is very strange and surprising. The many revolutions in science have certainly shown that.
The strongest arguments prove nothing so long as the conclusions are not verified by experience. Experimental science is the queen of sciences and the goal of all speculation.
In every other science fiction series, humans are at the top of the food chain. In the 'Babylon 5' universe, they're in the bottom third.
We're losing track of the vastness of the potential for computer science. We really have to revive the beautiful intellectual joy of it, as opposed to the business potential.

People think of science as rolling back the mystery of God. I look at science as slowly creeping toward the mystery of God.
Science investigates religion interprets. Science gives man knowledge which is power religion gives man wisdom which is control.
The antitrust litigation currently in the federal courts in the U.S. against Monsanto will be the test case in the life sciences, just as the Microsoft case was the test case in the information sciences.
Science is a perception of the world around us. Science is a place where what you find in nature pleases you.
Science can purify religion from error and superstition. Religion can purify science from idolatry and false absolutes.
My brother is a scientist. He's a professor at MIT. He brought science fiction into my world.
I think science fiction is very bad at prediction.
A lot of the cosmologists and astrophysicists clearly had been reading science fiction.
I think you can do science fiction, but you have to ground it in some realism. People need to identify with the characters, with their plights and their issues.
