It defines and analyzes the generation starship and examines the science and technology behind its conception, also charting the ways in which generation starships manifest themselves in various sci-fi scenarios. It then traces the history of the generation starship as a vehicle for science fiction stories and as a wider reflection of the political, historical, and cultural context of science fiction's development.
