I've never been on a starship either but I have no problem trying to imagine what it's like.

Yes, but how would you go about imagining it? Would you draw on experiences you have had, like -- well, I used to live on a boat, which was small, and cramped, with very limited facilities, and vulnerable to sinking or being cast adrift, so I might use those insights. And if I was writing violence, I'd look for the sliver of violence in me, at the times when I've wanted to lash out at someone (but didn't), explore how it felt, imagine what it might be like to be driven by those feelings, and then apply those insights to my writing. That's what I mean by 'identifying' and 'drawing on your own experience'. It complements observation.
