science fiction

The bridge between imagination and technological advancement, where the dreamer’s vision predicts change, and foreshadows a futuristic reality. Science fiction has the ability to become “science reality”.

Any Paradise
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Lena thought about this nugget from the orientation classes as she tightened the seal on her helmet. She had to stifle a quiet groan when she realized she might be testing that theory today if it all went to hell. And there was every chance that it would.

Finally
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Precisely why Jack thought that space could be her perfect new home. The majority of her relationships have all been ruined by her psychic abilities, or, as she prefers to call them, her "tormentors" anyways.

A Celestial Odyssey of Tragic History
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. However, I swear that I can. In truth, its more than that; its more terrifyingly real. For as long as I can remember, every night that I went to sleep, I was taken somewhere into the far reaches of space. Everything was the opposite from what was supposed to be for astronauts, I was warm and could breathe as if I was the surface of any viable planet! This fact first startled me at such a young age, but I quickly got accustomed to it when I realized that I was going to fine, but still.

Chiral
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. Yet screaming had become a nightly ritual for Shel. She would collapse onto the narrow twin bed, smother her face with her pillow, and scream. The exertion would leave her pharynx burning and her lips tasting of cheap synthetic cotton, but the tightness in her chest would feel just a little bit looser, and sleep would come just a little bit easier.

Black Hole Sun
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. There I was falling towards that beautiful new star. It had all happened in the blink of an eye. I was on my comms detailing the repairs to cadet Thompson when I was suddenly jolted away from the spacecraft. My tether had snapped off and I was drifting and spinning uncontrollably - at a startling speed.

D[R]YAD: An Odyssey
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. One of our eyespots watches the passage of time in the slapdash simulacrum of binary sunlight shifting over ill-suited living quarters; the other gazes listlessly at the miasma of light on the vidscreen, the speeding sundry stars streaked into opalescent fire. We may not be able to hear the sound waves of an exhalation as it escapes from the body and thins into void; but we see the twisting of the flesh and contorting of the form; we feel the panic of the creature as it faces annihilation; and, among those who share the art of Inspeak, we absorb the final thoughts of the dying.

Ageless memories
"Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say", someone told me that but don't remember, and is echoing in my head, my mind is playing with me with those types of incomplete flashbacks of memories and now I am only hearing screams from the helmet, I think is the crew with who I travel this time around but they are not related to me then why I have the Idea they are been torture because of me, my mind is not thinking correctly, there is only questions and not answers.

Ultraviolet
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. That doesn’t mean I didn’t try. If you had told me two weeks ago that I would be in space or even that aliens existed, I would have laughed. I have always been interested in alien movies or video games, but never in a million years did I think I would personally experience it.

Despite his status as a stowaway on a military cruiser hurtling towards its destination amongst the great unknown of the cosmos, he was at peace. He knew that under the unprecedented guidance of Maiiyah, all of life’s prodigious mysteries would unravel for him, and armed with that knowledge he need not fear the vacuum of space, or whatever awaits him at his destination.

Europa's Redemption
Nobody can hear a scream in the vacuum of space, or so they say. A silly notion warped into a profound statement. Oh, science might explain it rather succinctly—no medium for the sound to travel. Now almost a full decade into his “retirement” the screams of billions still deafen Adam Knight’s thoughts. Allowing the decimation of an entire population for political expediency could be rationalized in theory. He remembered getting an A on a paper he turned in for his military ethics class—a proud moment to be sure. On the day when the metal met the vacuum, the experience was altogether different.
