Reading habits materializes thoughts that are out of box to be imagined and pondered upon ever years after that particular book or novel. It institutes lateral thinking with intuitive mind to imagine things that were described as text. Reading habits differ from people to people. Science fiction amazes every age group of people. It brings back childhood in each and every person’s mind. Science fiction strategizes certain things, which are beyond the expectations of person. The delivery of information may differ from books to movies but the overall theme remains to be quite unique. The technologies proposed in books and movies have administered researchers and scientists to work over them to materialize them in day today life. Hence researches were carried out all over the world to establish good rapport between human beings and science. Of all the advancements instituted by science development of mankind seems to be common theme.

Technologies that came truth

Several technologies postulated in the scientific fiction books have envisaged proper thinking to put through to establish better understanding. These things have astonished some people and have made to cast thoughts over them for many. This conceptualization of unimagined happening may sometime be true to make people even more awe-inspired. These are listed below with specific examples to envoy better delivery of facts-

• Traveling faster than light

This is proposed by many science fiction based books and movies enabling researchers to develop evidences over them. This has benefited science fraternity with discovery of certain radioisotopes that are capable of traveling at faster pace. Alcubierre travel has given ways to beat light in terms of speed and time. It has provided sufficient solutions to the researchers and people for a postulate denoting traveling faster than light is all the more a possible happening.

• Alien communication translators

Science fiction often portrays characters from other planets communicating quite strangely in different language. This needs to be translated eminently to extract the conversation in our innate language. Hence this is also now under research projects to develop translators to decode the information available in celestial world. Even if not now in immediate future may be after two or three decades or so.

• Robust Spacecrafts

Robust spaceships used by alien characters have provoked thoughts to develop spacecrafts that could escape into space at a velocity greater than earth’s escape velocity. The travel on land may be made three-dimensional as described in science fiction with the advent of fly-by-wire technology. Even people are ready to develop unmanned production cars with all the sophisticated qualities bundled out in grand manner.

• Television antenna over head

It is quite common in science fiction that characters come up with strange looks and disgusting appearance such as having antennas over the head. This denotes privacy that one could enjoy in years to come; this concept is explained explicitly not in technical terms but under some constraints. People are now working over development of brain TV that provides utmost privacy and option for people to go about in years to come.
