Summary

By exploring imagined scenarios and interactions with otherworldly creatures through literature, movies, and media, science fiction helps us contemplate the unknown and examine our own beliefs, fears, and expectations in anticipation of such encounters. It acts as a tool to shape and broaden our perspective, fostering curiosity, imagination, and open-mindedness about the possibility of contact with beings from beyond our world.
