007 The Arecibo Collapse - I need some hopeful Sci-Fi right about now

Exploring Tomorrow: Meaningful Science Fiction and Life's Big Questions

I light of the tragic collapse of the large radio telescope at the Arecibo Observatory, I'm needing a bit of a pick-me-up. It can be quite difficult as a science fiction author to remain hopeful about human progress when we allow such an amazing tool for scientific discovery to literally fall apart. In this episode, I go digging for some suggestions on hopeful sci-fi books and movies to check out. Along the way, I notice an interesting trend.
