[QUOTE]Originally posted by Phelps: [QB] Different outcomes of WWII could just as well be historical speculative fiction. Science fiction has to explain or suggest why WWII came out differently, thorough time travel, aliens, etc. Even if it's only like this: "The Germans won. Don't ask me how, or why. Maybe some alien force influenced it. Maybe some time travellers entered the picture. In any case, this is what happened afterwards..." If things happen for no reason, not even one implied in the story, then it's fantasy. TOS would still be science fiction because in its time, it could not know what would happen in 1992 (especially given the huge technological progress of its era). However, a show that still says they happened in 1992 just to maintain consistency is a bit more fantasy. [/QB][/QUOTE]
