Science fiction
Science fiction (often shortened to SF or sci-fi) is a genre of speculative fiction, typically dealing with imaginative concepts such as futuristic science and technology, space travel, time travel, faster than light travel, parallel universes, and extraterrestrial life. Science fiction often explores the potential consequences of scientific and other innovations, and has been called a "literature of ideas". It usually avoids the supernatural, unlike the related genre of fantasy. Historically, science-fiction stories have had a grounding in actual science, but now this is only expected of hard science fiction.

U.S. television science fiction
U.S. television science fiction is a popular genre of television in the United States that has produced many of the best-known and most popular science fiction shows in the world. Most famous of all, and one of the most influential science-fiction series in history, is the iconic "" and its various spin-off shows, which comprise the Star Trek franchise. Other hugely influential programs have included the 1960s anthology series "The Twilight Zone," the internationally successful "The X-Files," and a wide variety of television movies and continuing series for more than half a century. The first popular science-fiction program on American television was the children's adventure serial "Captain Video and His Video Rangers", which ran from June 1949 to April 1955.
Doctor Who in Canada and the United States
"Doctor Who" in Canada and the United States refers to the broadcast history of the long-running British science fiction television series "Doctor Who" in those countries. "Doctor Who" had an early Canadian connection. The series was conceived by Canadian expatriate Sydney Newman while he was the BBC's Head of Drama. The series may have been inspired by a short-lived segment (canceled because parents complained that it was "too frightening" for their children) on the Canadian version of "Howdy Doody". The segment featured a character surprisingly similar to the Doctor, a puppet called Mr. X who traveled through time and space in his "Whatsis Box" teaching children about history.
Space Adventures (comics)
Space Adventures (sometimes cover-titled "Science Fiction Space Adventures", "Space Adventures Presents Rocky Jones" and other variations for particular issues) was an American science-fiction anthology comic book series published sporadically by Charlton Comics from 1952 to 1979. Its initial iteration included some of the earliest work of industry notables Steve Ditko, Dick Giordano, and Tony Tallarico, and at least one story by EC Comics mainstay Bernard Krigstein. In 1960, a second iteration introduced the superhero Captain Atom by writer Joe Gill and artist Ditko, shortly prior to Ditko's co-creation of Spider-Man for Marvel Comics.

Stargate SG-1
Stargate SG-1 (often abbreviated as SG-1) is a military science fiction adventure television series and part of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's "Stargate" franchise. The show, created by Brad Wright and Jonathan Glassner, is based on the 1994 science fiction film "Stargate" by Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich. The television series was filmed in and around the city of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The series premiered on Showtime on July 27, 1997 and moved to the Sci Fi Channel on June 7, 2002; the final episode first aired on Sky1 on March 13, 2007.

Stargate
Stargate is a science fiction media franchise based on the film written by Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich. The franchise is based on the idea of an alien Einstein–Rosen bridge device (the Stargate) that enables nearly instantaneous travel across the cosmos. The franchise began with the film "Stargate", released on October 28, 1994, by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Carolco, which grossed US$197 million worldwide. In 1997, Brad Wright and Jonathan Glassner created a television series titled "Stargate SG-1" as a sequel to the film. This show was joined by "Stargate Atlantis" in 2004, "Stargate Universe" in 2009, and a prequel web series, "Stargate Origins", in 2018.
Stargate literature
Stargate literature comprises the novels and short stories in the "Stargate" franchise fictional universe (based on either the original "Stargate" film or the "Stargate SG-1", "Stargate Atlantis" and "Stargate Universe" television shows) as well as non-fiction devoted to the franchise. "Stargate" literary works follow no strict continuity with the series or each other, and are often considered to be non-canon. This is evident in the fact that there is a period of roughly a year between the original idea for a novel and the finalised product, causing problems for authors as they are unaware as to how the franchise will develop and change during the writing process.
Stargate fandom
Stargate fandom is a community of people actively interested in the military science fiction film "Stargate" and the television shows "Stargate SG-1" (SG1), "Stargate Infinity" (SGI), "Stargate Atlantis" (SGA), "Stargate Universe" (SGU) and their spin offs. The first franchise release, "Stargate" (1994) spawned four television series successors, four movies (two in production), a plethora of merchandise, and a massive franchise collectively known as the "Stargate" (owned by Metro–Goldwyn–Mayer and aired by Syfy, which now owns television properties they previously held with Carolco Pictures). Thanks to "Stargate" fandom, the franchise has spawned other media including books, television series, video games, comic books and audiobooks.
Stargate Atlantis
Stargate Atlantis (often abbreviated SGA) is a Canadian-American adventure and military science fiction television series and part of MGM's "Stargate" franchise. The show was created by Brad Wright and Robert C. Cooper as a spin-off series of "Stargate SG-1", which was created by Wright and Jonathan Glassner and was itself based on the feature film "Stargate" (1994). All five seasons of "Stargate Atlantis" were broadcast by the Sci-Fi Channel in the United States and The Movie Network in Canada. The show premiered on July 16, 2004; its final episode aired on January 9, 2009. The series was filmed in and around Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Mythology of Stargate
In the fictional universe of the "Stargate" franchise, the people of Earth have encountered numerous extraterrestrial races on their travels through the Stargate. In addition to a diversity of alien life, there is also an abundance of other humans, scattered across the cosmos by advanced aliens in the distant past. Some of the most significant species in "Stargate SG-1" are the Goa'uld, the Asgard, and the Replicators. "Stargate Atlantis", set in the Pegasus galaxy, introduced the Wraith and the Asurans. One of the most influential species in "Stargate", the Ancients, have moved on to a higher plane of existence.
