William Shatner - Science is Science Fiction
"Just give me one... other dimension, and the answer is “we can’t conceive of that.” (“That doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.”) “ Well, It doesn’t mean it does exist.”
So I said to Dr. Kaku….what do you do when you get up in the morning doctor? What do you do; and he says, “it's all in my head. I think.” Well, I said how do you prove what you're thinking exists because it's all theory? He said, Well, I've got these very elegant numbers, equation eb divided the 7 of 4. It’s all in his head. How do you prove a black hole? How do you know those gravitational waves prove the collision of two black holes? (“Somehow eventually they are able to observe phenomena”) No! They can’t observe! it's too far away! it's too theoretical. How do we know what they're saying is true? You know what it really is? It’s all science fiction.”
“Science fiction says, this is a story that I'm making up and there's this thing called wormholes and that's a science fiction concept. Although these scientists say there are wormholes. How do you know?”
“The mystery of science fiction is what I'm talking about. Science and science fiction are essentially the same.”
