Forget shifting antecedency or a Delaware - emphasis on science educational activity ; this hebdomad , Buzz Aldrin told the Sci Fi Channel that the real culprit behind young person disinterest in blank space exploration is none other than science fabrication . Et tu , Buzz ? After the jumping , feel out why Aldrin is take up the genre to task .
The one - time lunar explorer claims that the fantasical promise of space - theme science fiction has left consumer of sci - fi media disappointed with the real thing :
I pick the fantastic and unbelievable show about blank space flight and rocket ship that are on today … [ I]f you start dealing with fantasy and beam people up and down and traveling seven sentence the speed of light , you are doing damage . You ’re not helping . You have young citizenry who have beget expectations that are far unrealistic , and you ca n’t possibly live up to the expectation you have created in young people . Why do they get bored with the space program ? That ’s why .

Interestingly enough , in 1996 Aldrin co - authored his own work of skill fable with veteran soldier novelist John Barnes . But Encounter with Tiber seems not to fall quarry to the visual modality of the future Aldrin has so bitterly condemned . Rather , the lead character finds she has so much fourth dimension on her hands while en route to Alpha Centauri that she churns out several life story , which make up most of the 600 page tome .
