What is Science Fiction?

In the case of this Museum, “Science Fiction” includes Fantasy and Horror, and anything else that might fall under the category of Speculative Fiction. If in doubt – it should be included.

​

However, Science Fiction proper is generally considered to be fiction with some integral story element based on science, or science speculation (a certain amount of hand-waving may be allowed, especially in earlier works). Generally this excludes most definitions of magic and the supernatural.
