Question

question 10 of 10
which technology was originally predicted by a science fiction writer?

a. digital cameras
b. laser beams
c. atomic bombs
d. night vision goggles

Explanation:

Laser beams were predicted by science fiction writer H.G. Wells in his 1898 novel The War of the Worlds, where he described "heat-rays"—a precursor to laser technology. Other options like atomic bombs (rooted in scientific theory) or digital cameras (developed from engineering advances) were not originally predicted by sci-fi writers in the same direct way.

Answer:

B. Laser beams
