today we watched a episode of the twilight zone called to serve man it was about aliens that came to earth to help man and in the end it turned out that the aliens wanted so serve humans like to serve humans for a meal.some of the elements of sci fi were evident when the aliens came to earth which was an example of a fantastic assumption . another example of the elements of sci fi was when the humans were interrogating the aliens with a lie detector (high adventure). the last example of an element of science fiction was the ambiguous ending which was when it was revealed that the humans were not going the the alien planet to vacation they were going their so the aliens could eat them.
Today we watched a ted talk about the next species of human, it was about a guy that talked about the economy and national debt then he talked about robots and making skin cells. In the end he connected it all together by saying that we could change ourselves as a species via using technology and science.
the part that stuck out most to me was that if someone was born with missing limb or defective organ modern medicine could grow one which I think is pretty cool. Today we watched an episode of the twilight zone called the invaders it was about this woman who had a alien land in her house and it chased her around her house. in the end the woman destroyed the alien ship and killed the aliens. the science fiction aspect of the episode is that these aliens exist. the episode also had all the elements of science fiction because there was high adventure which was the fighting scenes and there was a fantastic assumption and inteluctuel excitement when it is evident there are aliens in the universe. also the aliens sending the last transmition to their people is a sign of an ambigous ending
