It is similar to, but differs from fantasy in that, within the context of the story, its imaginary elements are largely possible within scientifically established or scientifically postulated laws of nature (though some elements in a story might still be pure imaginative speculation).…

    The story “A Sound of Thunder” is a story about a group of people time traveling in a time machine and visiting the time of the dinosaurs. They also accidentally changed the future. This story fits into science fiction because it involves time travel to the past and bringing back the dinosaurs. It also involves the history of the future.

    Science fiction produces a "what if" element that asks a question and prophesises the future. There are many texts, which presents the reader or viewer with a particular way of science fiction. The two texts, "A cage of butterflies" by Brain Caswell and "Mission to Mars" by Brian de Palmer, both of which conform to science fiction. The technology used in "A cage of butterflies" is of extremely high standard and produces a theme that prophesises about experimentation and mutations occurring on humans. The theme in "Mission to Mars" is about discovery, communication and reaching out to other life forms.…

    Science fiction is a genre based on future technological advancement and has been a very successful and influential; I’m going to compare “A Sound of Thunder” to “Nethergrave”, two selections of said science fiction, to answer the question of which ones better by looking at their use of science fiction elements. “A Sound of Thunder” by Ray Bradbury takes place in a future where time travel has been invented and a dictator has just been defeated in the presidential election. When the main character, Eckel, travels back in time to kill a tyrannosaurus rex and strays from the path he has to deal with unforeseen consequences back in the future. “Nethergrave” by Gloria Skurzynski is about Jeremy, the laughing stock of his school, unable to do any…

    “A Sound of Thunder” fits into the science fiction category because it’s based on time travel, dinosaurs ruling the Earth, and staying on the correct path so he doesn’t “change the course of history”. Those are all science related things so that’s the science part. It’s fiction because its fact but science related. No one can go back in time or change the course of history that’s where the fiction comes into play. In the story “nether grave” it’s harder to classify it as science fiction, because it’s not like it has something to do with time travel or dinosaurs, but it does have to do with gaming and leaving behind his own life to be a jaguar in a video game life. It does have to with people and how their life effects their life decisions which is science. It’s fiction because people can’t trade in their bad life to be in a video game.…
