Apologies for the probably unanswerable question. I've only seen a brief scene of the movie, on TV around 1993-2000, where the heroes (?) planned to travel from the realm of the White Queen to the realm of the Black Queen (which was presumably evil), probably to disrupt her plans. Uncovered (T...

I would just like if someone could simply explain what would happen if something moved faster than he speed of light?

In the Star Trek Discovery Episode E1:E6 Leethe, we see Admiral Cornwell go on a diplomatic mission to the Klingons. This results in her capture. In the Star Trek Discovery Episode S1:E9 Into The Forest I Go, they are surprised to discover Cornwell on the Klingon vessel, and beam her back with ...

I read this story when i was younger I don't remember much of it as it was a very long time ago. From what i remember the main character is female and she has a younger brother. They are with another traveler whom I believe was related to them. At one point in the book their consciousness were b...

In Cube, it's strongly implied that the participants in the Cube were chosen for a specific reason: Quentin McNeil is a competent but disturbed police officer who cracks under the pressure of the exercise. Joan Leaven is a mathematician who takes the first step to "solving" the Cube. David Wor...

I'm trying to track down a book that I had that borrowed to a friend that lost it. I want to say it was from the 50's or 60's. It had a red cover. I remember 3 stories. One about a blob that lands on earth and absorbs matter exponentially, the launch it into space and blow it up and now infinite ...

Would it be possible for a race of crustacean humanoids to live as nomads in a desert environment? I want them to have crab-like faces and crab-like skin with humanoid bodies. Would they survive in that environment? What would they need to survive both biologically/anatomically and clothing/equip...

The Gryffindor-Slytherin match was referred to as the final in Prisoner of Azkaban. But was that the correct term to use? Wasn't it just one of six league matches? Note This isn't a duplicate of this question. That assumes that the House Trophy consists of six league matches, while my question ...

He could save anyone and do anything he wanted to do, as the Master did, the paradox machine is powerful enough to let the Toclafane kill their ancestors without causing a massive paradox, so, why not?

I'm currently watching Episode III, and when looking at the air traffic on Coruscant, it appears that traffic moves on level planes that differ by elevation, and so, I wondered: how are these elevations established? For example, is it based on the distance being traveled by the vehicle, or, is it...

I remember reading a short story on the internet, maybe a year or two ago, that was about a monster under the bed of a little girl. The story took about 10 minutes to read I think. Can you help me remember what the name of this story was and where I can find it? The story was written from the mo...

In the Season 1 of The Punisher, David Liebermann's backstory is explained while he was tied up by Castle and was being interrogated. During his role as a CIA analyst, he receives a video of the illegal operations happening in Kandahar and he is stuck in a dilemma whether he should disclose it h...

Ι read this short story many years ago as it was briefly popular on the web at that time. Τhe short story involves two aliens who were described as large and Ι think, immobile. Τhey are observing humans from orbit when something like a philosophical disagreement occurs regarding the humans. Τh...

I read a story on the internet about a theory which said, that some of us can become god ultimately. People get born, die and get reincarnated. The crux of this story was, that whenever a human dies, he takes some of his knowledge/experience into his next life until he gathered enough to create/...

I was recently rereading the original '80s Secret Wars comic on Marvel Unlimited, along with all (or most of) the other comics that were going on at the time. It's quite clear that, for the people who didn't get yanked off the Earth, there was no discontinuity in their existence at all. And yet...

An alien ship arrives (Rama like) at earth and issues an invitation to take people on board. They must be standing within so many feet of water at a certain time in order to go. They're told it's a one way trip I think, and are beamed(?) up. I think it's set in contemporary time. A scientis...

For example is Rey Kylo Ren's sister? I feel like this follows from the first films (IV,V,VI) and the fact that George Lucas says the films "rhyme". Does anyone else feel this way or have evidence of this? There is a youtube video out there where it is mentioned that Ray's character sat betwee...

I heard someone claim that it was definitely possible for (MCU) sorcerers to master individual use of each of the stones, but gave nothing to back that up other than the fact that sorcerers were able to develop ways to master (or at least control pretty well) the powers of the Time Stone. Is ther...

This story was from the 1960s or earlier, read in a hardbound collection of stories, possibly all from one magazine. The spaceship was large and sent on first contact missions. It had several different environments for different species of intelligent life in the crew. When they met a new spec...

This Picard Facepalm image is very famous. You can find it in countless memes. Everyone keeps using it on social media. Even Fortune.com has used it. It is that much famous outside its dimension that when I do a reverse image search, Star Trek is nowhere to be found. This is actually funny. F...

In Thor: The Dark World, Heimdall looks bald, maybe because he is using a helmet during all the movie, but on Thor: Ragnarok he looks like a hairy hipster. Where did his hair come from? Did he have hair in The Dark World?

I wanted to know what this means because it is one of my favourite spells.

I am looking to identify a sci-fi short story about a male scientist married to a very beautiful, but vain and sexually extreme woman. She had sexual relationships with lots of men at the same time - with her husbands full knowledge, but not approval. In the end he invents a beautiful dress, wh...

A famous quote attributed to Punisher is "God will judge our enemies / We'll arrange the meeting". Especially in merchandise like this: Did he really say that? When?

I wanted to know this because I was curious what triggered J.K. Rowling to write this.

In Good Omens, Welsh-language television is said to be one of Crowley's proud and modern acheivements. Why is that? I gathered by the context that it was BAD, but have no idea how an entertainment business could in any way render people so miserable..Is it a language barrier thing? Spending y...

Ok, so there was this book (it was actually a series) about elves, humans, and evil spiders, but I cannot for the life of me remember the title. I do however remember one scene in particular in which the love interest (male) of the main character (female) is found to have been killed by a spider....

In Star Trek Discovery S1:E9 Into the Forest I Go - we see Captain Lorca refer to scattered pockets of negative mass. We read: Lorca: Let me show you something. Stammets: You've been accumulating this data from my jumps the whole time? Mm-hm. Lorca: And these scattered pockets of ne...
