"Every spacefaring race ever has science fiction, of some form or another, among their cultural works. It is, after all, impossible to get into space without dreaming about it, and then writing those dreams so other people can dream them too." -- Howard Tayler, Schlock Mercenary (in which there are multiple spacefaring species), note under the 2019-01-15 strip

Except for whatever world Star Trek: Enterprise happened in. Captain Archer did such stupid things that I was firmly convinced that he'd come from a world without science fiction in it. Jim Kirk taught me a lot when I was only eleven, but clearly no one had ever taught Archer those things.

I do hope so. I hope some kid on another planet is reading about spaceflight right now.
