Science Fiction is a genre that often incorporates elements of science and technology, but it is not always based on established scientific facts. While some works may explore the implications of known scientific principles or speculate on future advancements, many also include imaginative concepts that go beyond current understanding or possibility.

How does science keep from becoming fiction?
The only way a scientific "fact" can become fiction is if it is proven wrong. Unfortunately most of science is either proven beyond a reasonable doubt to be correct or it is unprovable and just the only explanation they can come up with. If it is unprovable "big bang" they label it a theory, which to a lot of scientists is just as factual as something that has been proven. In a sense science is really nothing but another type of religion based on seen facts. No faith.
