Do you love the idea of time travel, teleportation, brain-powered computers, cyborgs or other far-fetched technology that has appeared in fantasy literature and movies?

Today’s scientists and engineers are discovering ways to make these ideas become reality.

And you can help them imagine how to do that – and win cash awards! The Kavli “Science in Fiction” video contest asks middle and high school students to investigate how science is portrayed in TV, films, and games, and then make a 30- to 90-second video about how current or emerging technologies could help realize those science fiction concept.

Or describe what science needs to discover to make it really happen!

The entry period runs from NOV. 1, 2013 – MARCH 21, 2014
