With the arrival of the 18th century and the industrial and scientific revolutions, technical specialisation and advances in research and machinery have required professionals to specialise more and more, enlarging the gap between humanities and sciences. During the past decades art seems to have taken on a new function. Not only does it have the potential to communicate scientific knowledge but it also has the ability to introduce new topics of research and points of view to contribute to the advancement of contemporary science. As technology has advanced, so has science fiction, painting more and more realistic portraits of what life in space could look like. Science and Sci-Fi are slowly coming together forming a new reality where the craziest dreams have started to become true. By providing free distribution of artistic content through film, press, and exhibitions, artists and cinematographers are promoting innovation by inspiring the scientific community to make fantasy a reality.
