“Indistinguishable From Magic” is a ST TNG novel that came out this year. (It was really good, although I don’t know that I love Scotty coming back and working with Geordi- strange…) This phrase comes up a lot though. This phrase was orginally one of Arthur C. Clarke’s Laws of prediction.
1.When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
2.The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.
3.Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
