Shanghai.

● What is science fiction
Science fiction,abbreviation SF or sci-fi,is a form of fiction that deals principally with the impact of actual or imagined science upon society or individuals.

Yes,I have read some.These stories often contain scientific devices that we do not have now,and technologies
that seem impossible,such as time travel.The characters may have bodies,cultures,and backgrounds that are very different than our own.The themes often include space exploration,alien contact,AI,and the future of humans,etc.
