Magical Gateways in Science Fiction


Listen Later

A lot of science fiction or fantasy authors have written stories about found pathways between worlds. Thresholds into alternate universes or alternate dimensions—and sometimes these are stories are meant to be explorations of the actual travel between worlds but often, too these are more stories of allegory that are meant to speak to us about choice, about destiny, about fate, or about the “what ifs” resulting from those same choices and fates that we often take for granted.

I started watching this limited run series called Constellation on Apple TV this past weekend, and even though the entire series as I record, this has not been released, and I’m still a couple episodes short of seeing how this all concludes, the premise of the story seems to lie in both something I mentioned in my first episode—which is the genre of the quantum curious—and then how it links to the premise of this episode, which is that of the magical gateway.
