Science fiction har været en velkendt genre i godt 100 år, men genren trækker tråde flere hundrede år tilbage, og allerede i 1700-tallet findes tekster, der i høj grad har træk af science fiction.
Science fiction har flere kendetegn, men den vigtigste er, at det tager udgangspunkt i (natur)videnskaben. Science fiction indeholder ofte samfund, der er præget af højteknologi, og om handlingen foregår i en nær eller fjern fortid eller en nær eller fjern fremtid, kan variere fra værk til værk.
