What is science Fiction? Science Fiction is a genre of fiction dealing with imaginary but more of less plausible content such as future setting, futuristic science and technology, space travel, aliens, and paranormal abilities.

What is not Science Fiction? Something should not count as Science Fiction, unless the science is necessary to it. Science fiction is not a unitary genre or form, hence cannot be encompassed in a single definition.
