Yes, all of this. Plus, as I stated upthread, there ARE plausible space science futures that we can extrapolate from, in the here and now. As I said: ISS in 50 years, a ringworld, Dyson sphere, Lagrange Point stations, Mars and lunar colonies, and that's all "close to home" right? So what if "they're a long ways off" in reality?? Asimov's Foundation was set millennia into the future! Wells' Morlocks and Eloi were thousands of years in his future! The scope is just way, way, way, too narrow, these days. Not big picture enough for my liking.

And yeah, I definitely agree with you on that! I feel like people's imagination when it comes to science has died? No, not their imagination, but their interest in space travel and how it could work, in theoretical but real science, has gone away, and it's really sad.

That said, I don't think it's gone for good, and I don't think it's even really gone. I think it's just harder to find because things like Game of Thrones and Twilight and Harry Potter and even Star Wars and Star Trek are so popular in comparison. It's not likely that you'll find any hard sci fi by going to your local barnes and noble, but you might find some online. Do you frequent any hard sci fi or just general sci fi forums at all? I know some of the magazines are still printing, too.

Admittedly I haven't done very much research into modern hard sci fi because I still have a huge pile of Niven et al to get through.

I think maybe you guys just don't read enough sci-fi anthologies these days.
