  • In the year 3781, according to Walter Miller Jr.'s A Canticle for Leibowitz ("Fiat Voluntas Tua"), a second nuclear holocaust destroys all life on Earth. However, survivors escape to human interstellar colonies.
  • Nostradamus' prophecies would extend to the year 3797; although not being considered as the end of the world.[1]
  • 3798 is the year in which Michael Wang's "The Cosmos" mostly takes place.
  • Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind is set 1000 years after the "Seven Days of fire", which took place within the 2750s in the 28th century (1000 years after the beginning of the Industrial Revolution). This means, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind takes place anywhere within the 3750s in the 38th Century.
  • In The Outer Limits episode "Soldier", the eponymous Qarlo Clobregnny, as played by Michael Ansara, originates in the 38th Century and is thrown back in time to 1964.
