There was a recent show on TV called How William Shatner Changed the World. Find it on video. The show answers your question, complete with film and comic book clips!

This is an excellent question. Because many people, especially sci-fi writers, keep on about how science fiction foretold the future, perhaps even helped it come to pass. But there has been little in the way of systematic research on the topic. And how many times has sci fi got it wrong?

Most publicised scifi fantasy to actuality case: Arthur C. Clarke's concepts of satellites being able to act as communications devices. Many others. (Btw, George Orwell was a very dissilusioned communist by the time he wrote 1984.) This book also has the idea of TV as surveillance devices.

1984 has already become reality. It was named for the year it was written (1948, in code). A british communist named George Orwell visited the Soviet Union under Stalin, and learned what Karl Marx's utopia looked like firsthand. He prophesized, that this would be the West's future. Also, H. G.
Wells had a pessimistic view in "Mind at the End of its Tether," his last book.

Late 40's or early 50's Bill haley built a assembly and launched it. Within the last 10 years HALEY'S COMET came by. Its traveling at enormous speeds and collecting whatever as it travels through the hemisphere. Its on a collision course with a large object, so our galaxy wont be disturbed.
