20 of the Most Accurate Sci-Fi "Predictions"

"It's fascinating to read books from decades or even centuries ago and discover details and technologies that subsequently came true — even indirectly. Most sci-fi authors don't try to predict the future but instead satirize or comment on their own times. It's especially ironic when some readers interpret an author's warning or worst-case scenario as a wish or suggestion, but that's part of the complexity of fiction"
