Science fiction is a time-sensitive genre that speculates about alternative futures made possible by technological change. It imagines alternate worlds with consistent rules and structures different from our current reality. Science fiction reflects on how technology may change what it means to be human. The story discusses different perspectives on long-distance space travel and references a god of catastrophe worshipped by the people of a red star. While NASA has not found life elsewhere, they believe microbial life exists in many places on Earth and think life could exist in other conditions. As scientists explore more planets and exoplanets, they will likely discover some form of alien life inhabiting other worlds.

Science fiction is a time-sensitive literary genre.
Science fiction, which is usually futuristic,
speculates about alternative forms of living made possible by technological change, and is hence also referred to as "speculative fiction." Furthermore, Science fiction, like fantasy and often related to it, imagines alternate worlds with believably consistent rules and structures, set aside in some way from the ordinary or familiar reality of our time and place. Also, Science fiction, as opposed to fantasy, reflects on technology to contemplate how it may affect the conditions of our life and change what it is to be human (Pitt. libguide,2023).
The story demonstrates that some think of the journey between stars as the sailing of dazzling ships, while others think of it as burrowing through the crevices of night. Some see long-distance travel as a migratory necessity and name their vessels after birds or butterflies. The people of a certain red star do not mention its name in any of its hundreds of languages, despite the fact that they paint alien skies with their whorled light and scorch its spectral lines into the sides of their vessels. Their most frequent, albeit global, cult is that of many cornered Mrithaya, mother of the flame. Mrithaya is often regarded as the god of catastrophe and sickness, imperial in the harm she inflicts. Any gifts she gives are incidental and usually have sharp edges. One of her devotees invested in the star civilizations drive (Lee,2011)
It sounded believable because according to NASA they have been working for a long time to comprehend, explore, and figure out. They have yet to discover life on any other planet, and there is no scientific evidence of extraterrestrial life. But they think about life on this planet beyond the big things — elephants, whales, and redwood trees — and focus on the tiny things, they've found microbial life nearly everywhere we've looked. Their understanding of livable habitats is evolving (Nasa,2021). They've only just begun to peer beyond the Earth. I support their theory that there is more than what meets the eye. There could be this planet that we are unaware of living a life by their own culture and norms.
I think this can happen because scientists are constantly discussing other planets and how they discovered life and the possibility of aliens on them. So, they will eventually detect an alien species or some sort of species inhabiting the stars and planets, and they will have their norms and values and will be unaware of our existence. They've only explored a tiny fraction of planets like Mars for example. So based on research, I think that there are icy moons in the outer solar system like Saturn’s moon Enceladus and Jupiter’s moon Europa that look like they may have subsurface oceans that could be habitable. And that's just what's in our solar system(NASA,2021). The more exoplanets discovered around other stars, the more we understand the many different conditions that life could exist in. Eventually, they will discover actual aliens or some form of human life living among the stars.
To end Science fiction is a genre of possibility, imagination, and innovation, and its popularity grows in tandem with scientific and technological breakthroughs.
