Is this the Right way to write an Sci-fi chapter?


Chapter:

- Flowers are blooming in Antarctica | Scribble Hub

www.scribblehub.com

Just read it and tell if it counts as sci-fi and if i should just remove the tag or it counts.

After a quick skim, I would consider it sci-fi. Low sci-fi, but still sci-fi.

Hmmm what about high Sci-fi? Who dose the low/high work?

The correct terms should be soft and hard sci-fi. Yours, aside from the very long exposition, seems to fall under the soft sci-fi category.

The difference between the two is that hard sci-fi is a story with scientific elements that are near-future and the laws or logic governing them strictly or mostly adhere to the real world's laws of physics.

Meanwhile, soft sci-fi is similar to fantasy in which case the theories or the events that happened are quite fictional, mostly made up to fit the story's context and setting and do not fully adhere to the laws of physics.

I also forgot, yes, that is sci-fi though I would recommend reducing the exposition of the world's setting. Anyway, I did not read your entire story and only the chapter you have posted here, so maybe my recommendation could be wrong.

Your right.
And thanks.
I would have to study the law of physics now. Ughh what a pain.
