5 Science Stories That Surpass Science Fiction

“5 Science Stories That Surpass Science Fiction” – “I don’t believe it!” you say. Check out the first one.

In my childhood, Robert Heinlein wrote ‘The Man Who Sold the Moon’ a novel about a man who started a company to get to the moon. Here we have SpaceX, a company started by Elon Musk to get to the moon and Mars. Surpassing? Or surprising? Let me know what you think, right here. As always, anyone who contributes comments to my blog post or writes me an email, gets a free short story.

Moving from the moon to interstellar space, we have another current news story.

AI Used to Solve Mysterious Radio Signals from Outer Space

I couldn’t beat that title of this recent story.

I’ve read stories about AI and stories about mysterious signals, but not stories combining the two. If you write me a story of any length about this topic, I’ll give you one of my books for free! That’d be paperback, audiobook, or ebook gift for you.

Let’s move on to the next amazing story.

5 Science Stories – Your Third Science Fiction Surpasser

Everyone loves stories about hidden worlds. I’ve read many books about a hidden Earth on the other side of the Sun. How about hidden galaxies? How about lots of hidden galaxies? Check out this article:

How can galaxies be hidden anyway? It’s pretty simple. If you can’t see them, they’re hidden. But people learned to combine multiple telescopes to find very dim light sources.

Let’s change our theme from outer space to medicine.

5 Science Stories: Medical Marvels from Today

We all want a cure for cancer. In one of these five discoveries, scientists find out how cancer hides from the body’s immune system. Strip away that cloaking device and down goes cancer.

In the preceding news link, you’ll also find a story about using AI to diagnose kidney disease. I’m not ‘kidneying’ you!

Before I finish this blog post, let me share some cool science fiction art.

Here’s a chapter icon from my novel Paranormal Privateers.

Why would I tell you about a failure? Because the inventor tried again and flew across the channel.

4 New Science Stories Ideal for Science Fiction

4 New Science and Technology Stories Ideal for Science Fiction. First of all, let’s start with this one:

What are the five coolest things and what kind of stories can I write?

Firstly, there’s a strong 3D membrane that can be used as a matrix for tissue growth and healing. I’d write a story about using it to restoring some injured person to better than they were.

Then, we have an on/off adhesive that works like a snail. When it’s dry it’s adhesive. When wet, it works as a lubricant. I’d write a story about a human fly who uses it to climb buildings.

Then we have a robotic fish. Out of millions of possible stories, my first inclination is to write about a hopeless military situation where an army is surrounded by a superior force and then use these fish to spy upon and attack the enemy.

Fourthly, read about mental control of prosthetic limbs through an EKG controlled helmet. I kind of have this in my books My Undead Mother-in-law and Paranormal Privateers. I could also use this in a sequel to my last book Secret Supers.

Finally you’ll read about a solar desalinator. In this case, I’d make a story about a destitute desert county that turns into a paradise using this.

What stories do you have? What stories do you want? The best response by comment or email will get a free short story from me.

4 New Science Stories – Your Second Story

Yup, this lady wears an external corset that pokes anyone who comes too close to her. What would I do with this story idea?

I’d take it to the next level of extreme. I’d make it a military weapon by increasing the speed and force and add bowie knives to the end.

Then this weekend I’ll sign my books at Geekfest in Peoria.

4 New Science Stories – Your Third Story

Through the annals of science fiction many stories describe adventures with asteroids. In real life, we have a satellite around one for the first time, mapping it to plan a landing. How can I make that into my next story?

I would describe the landing from the satellite’s point of view. Then I would describe some giant creature swallowing it from inside the asteroid. Finally, I’d finish the story by portraying the creature’s point of view. Maybe it’d think, “Yummy!”

Oh, wait–George Lucas already did that. Watch this next video.

Your Last Story

Finishing up my science stories for you, read this next classic trope:

Hundreds, perhaps thousands of stories have been written about asteroids hitting the earth. How can I make it fresh and new?

I would write the story from the point of view of dwellers on the asteroid and their efforts to survive. But, would you enjoy that story?
