I know for sure civilization as we know it will end one day. It could be beacue of humans, or some other creature. Maybe it's because of weather too. I think we have been close to the end of the world in the past. Like the great depression, and the holocaust. With factors like this in mind, anything is possible. It just depends on who and what is in charge of that time.

The benifits of the scientific progress are to expand the technology that we have to make the world a better place. It makes it easier for everyone to live everyday. The negatives could be very dangerous. We may never know it's dangerous until we try it though. The point of it though, is to help the world and the people in it, to flourish.

The most interesting scientific discovery i found was Editing Genes. It's interesting because it could get rid of very negative genes that babies are born with. It could help people live longer, and want to reproduce more. Some negatives can happen though, if the progess get's handled the incorrect way.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the most important one was Editing Genes. Because it helps people reproduce happier, and healthier familes. And puts an end to bad genes people are just born with. This not only helps our technology, but our population. It just makes the world a better place to be in, if everyone is healthy.

Science Fiction is either worlds or galexies based on a diffrent time zone. technology is more advanced or it's decreased. There may be unique human-like beings, or creatures. All of it is up to the human imagination. Thinking harder, and expanding whatever you want ''normal'' to be for you, is all what this genre is about.

# data[].attributes.body
My definition changed, by looking at science fiction in not only a positive way, but a negative too. And comparing and contrasting the diffrences between the two.

# data[].attributes.body
Science Fiction is important because it is more than just something entertaining for people to enjoy. It teaches us to study where we are at right now with technology, and where we could end up. It also makes people expand their imagination. It could be a warning too, of where the future could take us. It can help teach us to enjoy how much we have grown throughout the years with technology.

# data[].attributes.body
The most intresting question i thought the class asked was, "How does science advancement effect our social economy"? Because if you think about it, scientific advancements don't just effect a small certain group of people. These advancements and discoveries effect everyone.

# data[].attributes.body
Saying that Science Fiction could be a warning is the best reason for me. Because most people just focus on the positives of it. When there is a deeper, possibly darker, meaning behind Science Fiction.

# data[].attributes.body
I think the most likely thing to end civilization would be the rapture. Cause that is my religion. And i grew up reading about it all in the Bible. But if that were to not happen, i think the world would just end from natural disasters or bad goverment officials wanting to mandate things, to cause depopulation

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, we should use technology to make weapons. Because the technology that we have could make the whole process of preparing a gun would become easier. Shooting the gun, could become faster and easier too. Then putting it away gets a lot easier as well. If we jsut made weapons using technology, the opportunities are endless.

What stood out most in today's episode was how Judith killed the creature prematurly, which caused her to get stuck in a invinsible chamber. Then she took the creatures orb that controlled her, and the chamber. Then the creature saved Judith. And in the end, the creature was telling Ms. Dame ''Can you help me''?

# data[].attributes.body
scientific expirementation should be regulated to a certain extent. If it gets too dangerous, or to the point where something could go wrong, it should end. You don't wanna take any risk at all. There could be very bad side effects to that, that we could not understand. Do your research, and make it simple and safe for everyone.

My favorite episode was the first one, with the clones. Because we don't really understand how the hammok caused Homar to create a bunch clones. And it was the funniest, and also very interesting on how they fixed the problem.

I think i really am starting to enjoy this class, more than i thought. I never really thought about science fiction, the way i do now. It is a lot more intresting than u would think it is. It is a lot deeper that it is painted out to be too. I am very excited to learn more in this class. And see how much more i learn about the technology that we have today, and what it can turn into.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, i would want a computer implanted in my brain. Because i would never not know anything. It would make me feel more confident, and like i know the answer to everything.

# data[].attributes.body
a piece of technology that i have seen in science fiction that isn't real is time travel. It would be so intresting to be able to go to a spesific time and date from the past. And to stay there for however long i wanted. The things u would get to see in real life vs. just hearing stories about them would be so cool. But only if i didn't get stuck there.

The most intresting thing i thought about Jules Verne was how he is the reason behind people getting curious to expand their knowlage about the earth. Things that are in the earth, and things that are lightyears away. Atmospheres that have never been even touched, becoming something that everyone knows about, i think is what his plan was all along.

# data[].attributes.body
No, i would not want to travel the world in a submarine. Because it could be very dangerous and scary. We still don't know what all is in the ocean. And maybe that is a good thing. I would be too scared of something going wrong.

# data[].attributes.body
my first thoughts for 20,000 leagues under the sea, is that it seems very intresting and enjoyable

# data[].attributes.body
Because of the men in the town that belived in monsters more than anything. It was the only answer for them why ships have been sinking. And they didn't have technology like that to put machines down in the ocean yet. Even though later on, they got to explor more of the ocean in a submarine. They didn't think it was a man made thing killing people on their ships.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, i did enjoy 20,000 Leauges under the sea because it was very captivating. And made me wanna watch more. Although some points in the movie get boring, it was enjoyable.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, scientific progress should be regulated. The person who needs to be in charge of it, is just whoever knows the most information. Or who ever is most responsible in that feild. If there is no one regulating it, someone could get hurt. or worse matters, something could go very wrong.

I think Jimmy Neutron did a better job when it comes to how to fix the problem in the most human-like possible. Where as, The Simpsons, make it more about comedy. The way they fix the problem is a lot more extra and non-human like.

Some benifits of a machine having human or above human intelligence is the machine being able to help humans. If we needed extra help with something that a human doesn't want to do, then we got a machine to do it. If it has above human intelligance, than it can do even more. and can teach us what we need to know. There are some bad things that could come from this too though.

# data[].attributes.body
questions this video raised about machine intelligance is "How can we have machine intelligance that is not dangerous to human kind?"

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, i would want a robot. I would want it to be small though. Like to just fit perfectly in one of my hands. I would want it to fly and be ablt to swim. It could obviously be smarter than me too. So it can complete my homework a lot quicker.

# data[].attributes.body
The most interesting thing i've learned about Isaac Asimov was that he taught that whatever people portrayed robots to be like, it's not the truth. And there can be such thing as a ''good'' robot. And robots can be created to be helpful and kind to humans.

# data[].attributes.body
Dangers that exist by machine intelligence could be humans becoming more dependent on machines knowlage. Rather than information humans could find out, to just hoping that machines would do all the dirty work for us. And the machines not wanting to follow our rules. Also the machines becoming more intelligeant than us. Which causes them to want to over power man-kind.

In the movie it was predicted that in 2001, we would have all this technology that was in the movie. But it has been 50 years later, and we still haven't gotten there yet. Even they didn't have personal computers in the movie. But mostly everyone today, has their own personal computer. So the predictions were very off.

I would not trust a computer to make my life decisions. Because it doesn't know what the consequences would be. Not saying i would, but it would be harder for the computer. I wouldn't trust it to make my death decisions either. I know what i should and shouldn't do to stay alive already. And i don't need a computer to do that work for me.

# data[].attributes.body
I would not trust a computer to be responsible for my decisions when it comes to what i wear, eat, and wher i work. Because then i wouldn't be able to have a personality. Basically every decision we make, is determined on how we are as a peron. And if a computer did all that for me, it would take away who i am as a individual.

I think the goverment does rely too much on computers. Because when it comes to voting, that's all done throughh technology. Which is also something that people can hack and mess up. Cause there has been problems with people voting that are dead, and even pets voting. Which needs to be talked about more.

# data[].attributes.body
After watching War Games, it makes me scared of technology. Because if it's not taken seriously, bad things could come. Some machines are a little bit too smart for me. Which is very intimidating. And you could think that whatever your doing is harmless, until something very bad happens.

I think that the three laws of robots is a great idea. Cause it's been used for a realy long time, and will be continuing to do so. It's easy too, cause it's not a lot of rules. Weather that is a good thing or bad thing, we may never know. But i do think since everyone uses it, it's gonna not change very much.

# data[].attributes.body
The movie of I - Robot, and the book I - Robot, are simular and diffrent in many ways. I - Robot has very little to do with the aforementioned short stories other than title and common ideas. No such events occurred in the book, but really, the human characters in the story have a lot less personality than the robots in the first place. They're just there to drive events. And Dr. Lanning of the movie is much the same.

# data[].attributes.body
I belive that artificial intelligence is a potential danger to humanity. I think if AI applications became in contact with humans, or got integrated into the human body, then there would be many malfunctions. It would cause safty risk, to man-kind. They could've been poorly designed, misused, or even hacked. Poor regulated use of AI in weapons, could lead a loss to human control over dangerous weapons.

# data[].attributes.body
If Asimov is pro - robot, i don't think he would approve of I - Robot. Because the movie is portraying robots to be a danger to society. And the humans becoming hopeless to figuring out how to resolve the problem. He would want the robots in the movie to not have malfunctions, and get along with humans.

I would not want my genetics to be altered to make me more human. Because I would rather just stay how i was created. I love what i have, and i don't need any more or any less. i would be too scared of something messing up. And not being able to fix it. Then getting stuck with something i can't get rid of or replace.

# data[].attributes.body
Besides the physical changes, modyifying your body would make many changes. The processing would be totally different. You would have different decision making skills. The process to make a decision would take longer, or shorter. And maybe you will make good desicions, or bad decisions. After being modified.

# data[].attributes.body
The exsistance of transhumans would change the world by things being concidered human that are not. Myabe they are created to be like us, then we would get them mixed up very easily. And if they were created to be seperate, then there would be competition. They could try and over take us and rule. And would we have the resources to take them down?

# data[].attributes.body
Someone who was modified could use their advantages for good and evil. Because it can make it's own decisions. Weather we create it to or not. Things can get misused, and hacked very easily. Although most people would create a machine that can help us for the good, what if it didn't know what was good or bad. And it did bad things, thinking it would be okay. Then that would be our fault.

# data[].attributes.body
I think once you have become so much more of a machine, rather than a human, then you shouldn't be concidered a human. Because certain charachteristics that humans have to have, in order be a human, are no longer avalible. If you loose your train of emotions, i think that is the biggest problem. You start making decisions that a human wouldn't, then you shouldn't be concidered a human. And if you talk like a robot or computer, that's the biggest deal breaker.

# data[].attributes.body
A real possiblility of transhuman that intrest me is the healing genetics kind. If someone can't see, or hear very well, and we have the products to fix that, then i think everyone should get it. Humans already deal with the issue or comparision, so it could be easily fixed in some ways by that technology. I have a lazy eye, and i was just born with it. And if you told me there was a way to fix that problem i've struggled with my whole life, then i would take those chances.

A super power i want the most is invincibility. Because i can go wherever i want. If i needed to pay to go in a certain building, then i could just walk in. I could even go in places that you usually wouldn't be allowed in, like the white house. You could be anywhere you wanted, and nobody would even know.

# data[].attributes.body
A non-injury related modification i think science should focus on is, self driving cars. And anything that has to do with driving safety. If the car knew things, like our heart rate, and blood pressure, some issues would be fixed. If it knew how tired we were, it could even take over. So i think cars are the biggest deal when it comes to non-injury modifications.

I think un-modified people are more likely to judge modified people because they are not simular at all. And obviously, nothing about them is natural. And the normal & natural people could be bitter about that. And if they can't connect and agree on a certain level, it causes jelousy and bitterness, with eachother.

# data[].attributes.body
People who get scientifically modified are more likely to use their powers for good. Because that's the way they shouled be wired, or created. If they were not motified to do good, then man-kind would be in danger. But some malfunctions could happen, causing them to not know the diffrence between good and bad. And then humans would get the blam for it.

# data[].attributes.body
The short story that seems more likely to come true is, Driftglass. Because the modification went horribly, which is something that could potentially happen. And the charachters decided to never give up. Which is something that the humans would have to do in our real life. To help save man-kind as a society.

I imagine Post Human to be diffrent from us by just how they live. I can't really imagine these posthuman looking any diffrent. Because if they are human, shouldn't they look just like us? If they don't end up looking like us, then that;s not human. Maybe they are just more smater and advanced. Because that's how every generation is looked opon. Or maybe they will be less educated, since some adults today belive the younger generations to be lacking in many ways.

# data[].attributes.body
Post humans should care about humans because they came from us. It's like we respect our great grandparents. And whoever came after them. because without them, we wouldn't be here today. So post human has us to thank. If they ever come into exsistance.

Fears i have about space travel go very abroad the whole idea of space fairing. We could discover something that we never were supposed to see. And we are putting peoples lives in jeopardy, taking them into space. But if those people really want to, you can't stop them. Another fear is something bad happening, and us not being able to fix whatever the problem is.

Aquaman was a lot more enjoyable becaue his powers seem a lot more cool to watch in action. And Captain America is more human like. Which aquaman, is less of a human. And the plot and action part of the movie are just a lot more interesting. Captain America kinda seems a lot more boring than Aquaman.

My initial thought on flash gordon, is that he seems like a fun character. He is charismatic, and daring. And always willing to impress Dale Arden. Which doesn’t always succeed. And his powers seem very interesting

Humanity should go into space fairing. Without us never exploring the atmoshphere we were given, we wouldn't know anything about it. There could be even more planets that we will never know about. And even possible life on other planets. We could even discover something that could be dangerous, and figure out how to stop to it. Then, humans will be protected and happy.

# data[].attributes.body
Is space fairing worth the risk? Maybe it is, or it could be not worth it at all. It's a scary thing to think about for our future. That's the most intresting question, because we don't know what is out there. It could be dangerous and deadly to humanity. But it could make us more advanced than ever.

Yes, I love star wars. I grew up with two older brothers that were big fan boys with star wars. They loved marvel movies too. So i grew up being forced to watch it all with them. It wasn't til i got older where i could understand it better. And now i get it totally.The author is a intellegent man with great works. .

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite Star Wars charachter is either R2D2 or Princess Laya. Because when i was little watching the movie, i wanted to be her. I even dressed up as her for halloween when i was little one year. And she's one of the only female charachters in the iconic movie.

# data[].attributes.body
I would rather live in the worlsd of star wars. Just cause i grew up watching it. It is also way more popular. I also know the charachters a lot better. And i would love to be able to work with them. And i know the ending would always be good if i was working with that team.

I think if we started a new star wars series it wouldn't be as good as the first one. Because the author that made star wars was so diffrent from everybody else.

And if that's so, then it should never be discontinued.

It is hard for me to belive that there is other life somewhere else in our universe. It's kinda creepy to think about too. But very intresting and intreging. But i do belive if God wanted to create something like that, then no one could stop him. And anything is possibie too, so maybe their is life somewhere else.

# data[].attributes.body
The most intresting thing i found in the video was, the charachter development. The charachters seem to be very determined and driven to get their jobs done. They seem very intellegant and figure out a way to solve the problems. Which is something humans would need if we ever got in that position.

# data[].attributes.body
If aliens exist, i think we should fear them. We don't have any actual information about them. And everything that we seem to put online or make public, make aliens out to be a dangerous being. If they existed, then i think we should try and figure out a way to get rid of them. But if they don't then we can live a lot more of a peaceful life.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite Star Wars charachter is Princess Laya. I grew up with her being my favorite. I even dressed up as her for halloween one year. She seems to also be my favorite because she is one of the only females in the movies. And she seems to be just as brave as the males in the movies.

ET's should want to be friendly to us, because we are the reason they exist. If the maker doesn't get respect, then what is the point of having them? They exist for humans benifit. And they should never be able to reject us. If they became able to resent, and turn agaist us, then humans wouldn't know how to stop them.

Is traveling the worl we live on the farthest we should go in the terms of education and intelligence? I think it is. Because we don't know what is out their. And we could never be prepared for it too. Too many bad things could happen from humans just being curious. It's diffrent when it's a new invention, but trying to discover something that's not even on earth, is a disaster waiting to happen.

# data[].attributes.body
Benifits that could come from ET's are things or jobs that humans wouldn't wanto to do. Like something dangerous, i think machines should do. That way, no one is getting in harms way that shouldn't be. If we have ET's do normal human jobs, then humans would run out of jobs and lose everything. But some people could become scared and intimidated by this new change.

I don't know if there is life somewhere else in the universe. But i am always going to keep a open mind to new ideas of life. I don't think it's impossible. Because i wasn't here when God created the world. And if they were real, were we meant to find them. Or should we never encounter them?

# data[].attributes.body
The most intresting things i've found in the video, is how diffrent aliens are portrayed in movies and tv shows. Some help humans, and some try to kill them. Sometimes they work for us, and other times we work for them. And sometimes we are the ones to discover them. And maybe they are the ones lokking for us.

# data[].attributes.body
If aliens exists, i think they have some human features like us. They could have our type of eyesight, and hearing abilities. And even be able to do some challenging things that only some humans can do. They would be more advanced, or dumber than humans. Because who is to say they don't have brains like us? They could be really un-intelligent and we just have no clue.

# data[].attributes.body
Some science fiction movies seem to be more real than others. Could be as simple as the charachters and their personalities. Or the creatures that are seen as dangerous in the movies. The worlds that seem to be exsisting in these movies seem to be very imaginative and nothing like reality. With how far we have came with technology, these movies seem to not be too outstreched and out of touch with reality.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't really know if aliens or intellegent machines would win in a battle. It depends on the aliens that are exsisting. And it also depends on the intellegant machines and how they were functioned to be made. If a machine is too weak for whatever powers the alien has, then the alien would out-smart the machine. But if it was the other way around, the alien would stand no chance agaist the intellegent machine.

# data[].attributes.body
ET's should want to be friendly with us, if we created them. Humans shouldn't abuse their power even if they could. It's not right to create something just for your benifit of making money or looking good. Whatever is made by people, needs to be used and benificial for everyone. We should be friendly towards ET's and they should be friendly towards humans.

If someone had told me that we would be invaded by aliens, it would be hard for me to belive in them. Cause i grew up getting told they were not real, and it's just something made up in movies. I would ask where they were, and how could we locate them. And how do we surrvive? Is their any chance of survival, or are we just doomed as a society. And how did we figure out they were aliens?

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think i could hide a alien from anyone. Let alone, my family. Since i live with them, it would just stay in my room. And i have a brother across the hall that goes in my room all the time. He would obviously see it, and freak out. I would be too scared to keep something like that unless it was very small and cute. And if i knew that it wasn't gonna hurt me or my family.

I picture Extraterrestrial life wanting to overcome humans. But in some movies, humans are their leaders. I think it would all depend on the alien and the human. Hopefully we would work together and get along though. Cause if we didn't get along, I think humans would be scared of aliens. But who knows, maybe aliens are afriad of humans.

I think Marvin the Martain is a better charachter than duck dodgers. Because he can't speak cause he doesn't have a mouth. And so he speaks through body movements. He also appears more later on. Where as in the begining, he isn't seen as much. And all he wears is a skirt and helmet.

# data[].attributes.body
If aliens exsist, i think they are like us by facial and body features. Might have hands and fingers like us. I don't think their heads would look the same as ours though. If they have ears, i expect them to be bigger or smaller than ours. I see them seeing and hearing better too. I don't see humans as more advanced other than our brains being a lot diffrent.

The most intresting thing i found in the video, is the narrator's aspect on life and the world changing troughout the video.

I don't think humans should be trying to time travel. I see no reason for it, and i wouldn't wanna risk anything.

It was Wells who envisioned a Utopia-like government ruling nation states. Which would give every person the right to be as well-educated as possible (especially in the field of science).

If i could time travel, I would want to go back into the roaring twenties. So i could see all the new inventions and compare them to what we have today. I am curious to see all the older cars too.

And then seeing what someones home would look like compared to today's homes.

In 1000 years in time, i would hope that the world would be in a better place. It would all just depend on the parenst raising their children right. And who will president or leading the country.
