Most people are familiar with Isaac Asimov‘s Three Laws of Robotics but today I discovered he’s not the only science fiction writer creating laws in threes. Here are Arthur C. Clarke’s three laws of prediction:

When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.

The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible.

Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
