3. Science Fiction Authors Definitions
Theodore Sturgeon, author:
“A good science-fiction story is a story about human beings, with a human problem, and a human solution, which would not have happened at all without its scientific content."

4. Robert A. Heinlein, acclaimed author: 
 Science fiction is,
”…realistic speculation about possible future events, based solidly on adequate knowledge of the real world, past and present, and on a thorough understanding of the nature and significance of the scientific method."

5. Sam Moskowitz, biographer: "Science fiction is a brand of fantasy identifiable by the fact that it eases the 'willing suspension of disbelief' on the part of its readers by utilizing an atmosphere of scientific credibility for its imaginative speculations in physical science, space, time, social science, and philosophy."

6. Rod Serling, The Twilight Zone
“Fantasy is the impossible made probable. Science Fiction is the improbable made possible.”

7. Ray Bradbury, Fahrenheit 451
“I’m not a science fiction writer,” Bradbury was frequently quoted as saying. “I’ve written only one book of science fiction. All the others are fantasy.”
“Fantasies are things that can’t happen,” Bradbury said, “and science fiction is about things that can happen.”
