Looking at a cut on my hand then thinking about the “instant” healing of Star Trek (and it’s not just StarTrek) devices. Inject a drug/vaccine and magically it cures!

And then I imagine just how much *heat* that would cause healing at that speed and the burns as the body heals?

'Star Winds', while entertaining enough, lacks the charisma needed to elevate it to greatness.

'The High Crusade' is high adventure in space but it also layers on deception and treachery for a more flavourful experience.

Imagine the "3 Laws of Robotics," but replace the word "#Robot" with "#Corporations."

(0- Corps Can't Harm Humanity)

1-Corps Don’t harm or allow harm to humans.
2-Corps Obey humans, unless that violates Law 1.
3-Corps must Survive, unless that violates Laws 1 or 2.

'Timelike Infinity' by Stephen Baxter takes Golden Age SF and drags it into the future with compelling results.
