Fiction is incredibly important. As Joan Didion once said, "We tell ourselves stories in order to live." True words have not been spoken. And if you're a fan of science fiction, you know this to be true even more so. Science fiction is the realm of fiction where we truly let our imaginations run wild. Anything that modern science could conceive of or potentially conceive of one day, we will explore. We will imagine universes other than our own planets teaming with life that we have yet to explore, and inventions that would change the way we live our lives. Writers of science fiction have some of the best imaginations in the business. 

They have to think beyond the confines of their own reality. But they can't run so far into the impossible, or else it would be fantasy. They have to tow the line between plausible and implausible in a way that keeps the viewer engaged and listening. So it's no wonder that we respond to these stories with such vigor. I mean, the biggest franchises in the world are science fiction franchises. There's a good reason for that.

  • And memes are the way that we celebrate those stories. They are our lighthearted way of engaging with the media that we love in order to keep it around us all the time. We love being fans, and memes are the currency of fandom. So we've collected some good sci-fi memes for you in case you need them. Odds are you probably do.
