Join Captain Victor T. Mayfair as he talks with the Scientarch of Mars in the second installment of their ongoing exploration of myth, science fiction, and the stories that define humanity. In this discussion, the Scientarch delves into the rise and fall of retrofuturism and atomic punk, the evolution of science fiction from boundless optimism to dystopian cautionary tales, and how the greatest visionaries—Asimov, Bradbury, Roddenberry, Lucas—shaped the modern mythos. From jetpacks and moon bases to cyberpunk dystopias, from Star Wars and Star Trek to the fears and hopes of the future, this conversation bridges the past, present, and destiny of science fiction. And as always, the Scientarch asks the question—what stories will humanity tell next?
