Sci Fi in Pop Culture

Not entirely related to the topic, but Star Trek has spawned quite a few inventions.
I can’t imagine the warp field being in any scientists thinking back in the 60’s, yet it seems GR’s thinking may be reality after all.
Warp field dynamics are being considered by Nasa’a propulsion labs as an alternative to liquid fuel space travel, one scientist has even published a theoretical paper on how to acheive it, although it may take many years to put into practice, it just goes to show how sci-fi like Star Trek can influence science.
