Science Documentary hosted by Ridley Scottt, published by Discovery Channel in 2011 - English narration


Information
------------------------------

Prophets of Science Fiction
What once was just imagination is now real; what was once the distant future is now around the corner. The \"Science Fiction\" of the past has now simply become \"Science\". And the science of the future was strangely prophesied by a group of visionaries whose dreams once may have deemed them renegades and \"mad scientists,\" have become reality! In 1950, the term \"Robotics\" was coined by author Isaac Asimov in his book I.ROBOT - and our collective imagination reeled. In the years since, literature, movies and television have allowed us to embrace the notion that the ideas of a few inspired visionaries could be made real. What is more astonishing is that these ideas have been, are currently and will be put to practice in our everyday lives. Each episode of the upcoming series prophets of science fiction will focus on how the great minds of Science Fiction imagined our future for us, and how some, in turn, made their fantasies real. In a dynamic hyper-stylized way that has never been seen before ... we will take a tour of what was, and what will be through the eyes of the visionary authors, illustrators, filmmakers, and scientists who have become the prophets of science fiction!




8) George Lucas
From Luke Skywalker\'s light sabre to Darth Vader\'s Death Star, the Star Wars franchise is one of the defining science fiction works of the later 20th century. George Lucas\' prolific imagination has already inspired two generations of scientists and engineers to push the envelope of technology. By introducing computers into the filmmaking process, he changed the way movies are made, and the way we all see the future.
