When researching and keeping myself current on events in the scientific world I often come across interesting articles for discussion. So, as part of my Wednesdays science fiction blogging I like to choose a topic that will hopefully create some debate.
When I was younger I would devour anything sci-fi I could get my hands on, Asimov, Clarke Wells, Verne, you name it, I was there! I feel this is what inspired me to pursue engineering as a career path.

When we look at TV and the cinemas as of late, we see Dune, The 3-Body Problem and The Expanse series reaching out to a whole new audience of dreamers. When you look at physicists like Carl Sagan or Michio Kaku, you see how sci-fi inspired them to think outside the box!

So…….does sci-fi stimulate our imaginations? Is this subject a catalyst for the creativity and inquiry of the young minds of tomorrow? What do you think?
