	1938: Naval Science, American - Archive Article - MSN Encarta
		The year 1938 was an epochal one for the United States Navy: it marked a distinct change in the national attitude toward our sea defense and security from invasion.
		The most exacting professional attainment of the Navy is to master the science of Naval Operation of the components of the fleet and of the fleet as a whole; and naval strategy and tactics require that the naval high command be trained to use the expensive weapons provided to the very best advantage.
		On June 30, 1938, a Protocol was signed by the United States, Great Britain, and France providing for a limitation of displacement tonnage for battleships of 45,000 tons instead of the London Treaty (1936) limitation of 35,000 tons.

	science fiction - HighBeam Encyclopedia
		SCIENCE FICTION [science fiction] literary genre in which a background of science or pseudoscience is an integral part of the story.
		Although science fiction is a form of fantastic literature, many of the events recounted are within the realm of future possibility, e.g., robots, space travel, interplanetary war, invasions from outer space.
		Science fiction is generally considered to have had its beginnings in the late 19th cent.

	Science Fiction
		Science fiction, sometimes referred to with the broader term of speculative fiction, finds its roots in the mists of antiquity, claiming the Epic of Gilgamesh, the rapture of Elijah, and Greek and Egyptian mythology as its predecessors.
		His work illustrates that science fiction arises when the rate of technological progress accelerates to the degree that consciousness of the changes within one's lifetime develops, and flourishes only when industrialisation brings the knowledge that the future will not be like the present to the common awareness.
		Science fiction authors have the ideas available to all fiction writers at their disposal, as well as the scientific, futuristic, and alternative possibilities, limited only by their imaginations.

	Hugo Gernsback- How to Write "Science" Stories
		LET it be understood, in the first place, that a science fiction story must be an exposition of a scientific theme and it must be also a story.
		You will see that this is not an absolute essential to a good story; a scientific detective can use science in tracing the perpetrator of an ordinary crime, but judicious use of science by both criminal and detective heightens the interest because it puts the two combatants on a more equal plane.
		The whole field of science is your oyster to open with your pen and extract the pearl of steady work and good pay.

	SIUC Long-Term Field Studies - Background
		In higher education, undergraduate ecology and environmental science education is taught primarily through lecture, recitation or seminar.
		Indeed, the 'doing' of science is the very essence of the subject, and often draws students into the discipline.
		Field-based experiences in the environmental sciences are more likely than laboratory experiences to involve mensurative exercises where students, for example, are asked to compare the number and abundance of tree species in an upland versus lowland area of forest.

	DMZ: John W. Campbell's Golden Age of Science Fiction
		He does vaguely trace the remainder of the time from 1938 to 1971 by discussing how Galaxy and Fantasy and Magazine were a response to Astounding and have their own slants, although he ignored many all of the minor magazines during the period.
		One of science fiction’s oldest authors, Jack Williamson, discusses his early career in science fiction in “The Early Days of the SF Magazines.” Much of this interview has Gunn focusing on Williamson’s interactions with the various editors such as Farnsworth Wright and Hugo Gernsback.
		Simak not only discusses his reasons for writing science fiction, but he also talks about specific books he has written and how changes in his life, not just changes in his writing ability, mean that he could not have written certain books, for instance, City, at a different point in his career.

	Science Fiction, magazines continued
		The earlier stories had mostly consisted of action and not very much science.

	Science Fiction The Early Modern Age
		Though Gernsback laid great emphasis on the need for scientific accuracy in his stories, his limitations were to haunt science fiction for years to come.
		As the decade of the 1930s progressed, there came the establishment of magazines that specialized in science fiction.
		This specialization created a science fiction ghetto with a core of uncritical readers (i.e., geeks) willing to accept Gernsbackian tales with leaden prose and more science than character.

	Science Fiction Cool Stuff
		But in reality Gunn was embarked on an even larger quest: preserving a vast horde of knowledge locked up in the brains of these men (no women writers, alas, were selected during the brief flourishing of this project), invaluable knowledge and experiences from the first five decades of genre SF.
		Together, the men work their way through over a dozen topics, such as "Cataclysms" and "War/Armageddon." Finally on the first disc, we hear from Jack Williamson, whose topic is "The Early Days of SF Magazines" (1975).
		And, finally, in one of the shorter segments, "A Life in Science Fiction" (1975), Clifford Simak responds to Gunn's questioning and paints a portrait of his long, multifold career, some 40 years in length at that point.
