I know ones de ja vu and ones telepathy but in phsycic awareness in the harry potter world are they similar?

I remember this from before 1970, maybe a tropical island? The plot had a transporter gate so anyone could go anywhere. The tropical paradise was overwhelmed by tourists... It seems like this is happening now, with people posting beautiful spots on social media. I'm looking for the half century ...

Of course the obvious answer would be it doesn't work, a blue supergiant will only live millions of years before it supernovas and becomes a pulsar or black hole. However, my question relates to the mechanics of how such a star system could work physically and not how it originates. So, with disb...

Kryptonite as seen on movies and comics only affects Kryptonian people at a biological level but in TV series Smallville, people who stole the powers from him or got the powers from a different source still are weakened by Kryptonite even if they arent Kryptonian, so why is it exactly that it wea...

Could someone mind explaining this quote? “Adventure. Excitement. A Jedi craves not these things” It seems to be at complete odds with the title "Star Wars: From the Adventures of Luke Skywalker" As a kid watching the original Star Wars it was the adventures/excitement of Luke Skywalker t...

I have only an image, a fragment of this short stories book: somebody that is looking a text in a paper; before to read it he realize that the shape of the text seems a standing man with the open arm. The paper it is written by a schizophrenic and in one vertical half it is written a sentence whi...

Science fiction at least 10 years old where people on spaceship crash into medieval type civilization. I only remember bits and pieces as I read as a kid and mom made me return it, :(. 1) They used ships laser to sharpen their swords and have the best medieval weaponry 2) Started trading with so...

The description for the Sakura droplet states: "A pink-colored crystal created when an Oathbound breaks their connection with a Divine Heir. Can only be used with assistance from one who has the inherent power of the Dragon's Blood." Later after defeating Lord Genichiro Ashina we learn abo...

So lately I’ve been trying to remember an anime I think was on Cartoon Network. It was definitely a space anime. I remember the protagonist had a weird looking ship and he also had a rival with a similar, slightly better ship maybe? I also remember somehow they knew how many hits it would take ...

After Leia is recovered from space and left to recover in what looks to be a glass MRI machine, command of the fleet is given to Vice Admiral Holdo. Poe asks Ello Asty if this is the "Battle of Chyron Belt Holdo?". What was the Battle of Chyron Belt? Do we learn anymore about it in additional ma...

In Captain Marvel it would appear as if Carol can break the fourth wall. First, we have the "knowing smile" she gives after Stan Lee's cameo in the film which directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck acknowledge as her breaking the fourth wall without stating in those terms. At one point, her eyes...

In Captain Marvel a number of people witness aliens on Earth and experience the power and danger they can cause including some key SHIELD characters (Coulson, and Fury to name 2). However, SHIELD doesn't start producing weapons from the Tesseract until after the events in Thor. When this is disc...

I am looking for suggestions (if there are any) of Stories, ideally novels or a series, that combine futuristic sci fi elements such as space travel, advanced science etc and the more typically fantasy elements like magic dragons etc. I am not looking for a series where Science is passed off a...

Brandon Sanderson has made it quite clear that The Fire Within The Ways, a "deleted scene" from A Memory of Light which was recently published in the Unfettered III anthology, is not canon. However, I'd like to pretend that it is for head-canon purposes. Is there any kinda sorta plausible way t...

If I remember correctly, there was never a male who could change the water and become the male version of the reverend mother. How did the Bene Gesserit know what they needed to do in order to make a male reverend mother, having never created one?

In the time period between Star Trek and Star Trek: Into Darkness, if the two Spocks would have met each other in person, could Spock (prime reality) have mind-melded with Spock (alternate reality), and if so, is it possible that Spock (prime reality) could have transferred all his knowledge to S...

At the start of Avengers: Infinity War, when Thanos and his Black Order attack the ship full of Asgardian refugees – killing most of the people on board - Korg and Miek are nowhere to be seen. We don't see them fight against the Black Order, and their bodies aren't among the dead. As we know that...

Of course, I'm asking about a comic book, I think from about 1970. I think I remember that it also involved a giant globe modeled as the planet Krypton. Superman was tasked to destroy this globe and he was afraid that the globe would turn into kryptonite when it was destroyed.

I read a book in school (early 80s) where the entire world was paved and everyone traveled in personal wheeled carts. There was a little girl who fell out of her own cart and discovered she had legs. There was a small patch of grass or some sort of greenery near where she fell but it was the only...

I read this novel back in the mid-80's but I'm pretty sure it was written in the 70's. Strange things start to happen around a homeless man - like the laws of chance are changed. The investigators discover that they can figure out what is going to happen next by interpreting the dreams/vision o...

I apologise if there is already an duplicate of this question on this site. Dumbledore and Grindelwald's blood pact means that the three way duel between Albus, Aberforth and Grindelwald where poor Arianna was killed should never have happened. However it did happen and thus the only logical co...

During the film Captain Marvel, the character we know as Vers discovers she is actually and worked with Mar-Vell Later on in the film she levels up and changes into the more recognisable Captain Marvel costume but to the best of my knowledge she's never referred to by the name Captain Marve...

Two people ride a train into a place where there is some disease that makes everyone fall asleep. They tell each other jokes to stay awake. It was a story in a science fiction anthology for young adults. I read it in the mid 1980s in a school library, but it looked like an older book even then.

In the books, it's established that Voldemort is seen as the greatest dark wizard of all time (well, at least the greatest until now) by the wizarding world. Given the hints and facts about Grindelwald in the books, I was always a bit confused and now, after the films, I'm even more surprised by...

There's a video game that takes place in a town in the wild-west that I remember vividly, but I can't find any pics or proof online to be able to post in the Arqade community. Reading the description for identification, I'm not sure if it falls under the umbrella sci-fi/fantasy. Would this be an ...

We learned in Avengers: Age of Ultron that anything and anyone can lift Mjolnir as long they're artificial. Could Tony Stark's main armour in Iron Man 3, the Mark 42, be able to lift the hammer while being controlled remotely?

It's been a while since I've read the Dune series. Something I was never quite clear on was why did the Bene Gesserit (BG) want to breed the Kwisatz Haderach (KH) at all? I understand that the BG were only able to access matrilineal memories; but what did they seek to achieve by having access to...

Trying to find a book I remember reading probably in the early 80s. The protagonist is an anthropomorphic bear on a planet of bears. He’s a postman or a mailman, which is a prestigious job.

Who all have exited the Soul World out of their own volition after being placed in it in the comics, if any?

It was about a person who had no physical body of their own. Every day, they became different people and were able to act as that person for the day. They had no control of who they could be, and couldn't be the same person twice, or for longer than a day. I have a few questions on this and was w...

In a future time in which most people have chosen to have a procedure to have implanted in their brains a network of filamentous circuits (described as looking something like a silver spiderweb woven through the brain, if you could see it with x-ray vision) that give them remarkable intellectual ...

The story I recall is told from the point of view of a protagonist who wakes up every day in a different person's body. Always a man, always in the same city. He does not have access to his "host's" memories, but muscle memory sort of works. So if he needs to open a door, the body will start to m...

I was reading through this question Can a Muggle do anything with a wand? and Valorum’s answer said this: JKR addressed this point in an interview in 2006; "I been asked what would happen if a Muggle picked up a magic wand in my world. And the answer would probably be something accidenta...
