克拉克基本定律

克拉克基本定律英語:)是英国著名科幻作家亚瑟·查理斯·克拉克积累有关科学文化方面的经验提出的。[1]

  • 定律一:如果一个年高德劭的杰出科学家说,某件事情是可能的,那他几乎就是正确的;但如果他说,某件事情是不可能的,那他很可能是错误的;
  • 定律二:要发现某件事情是否可能的界限,唯一的途径是跨越这个界限,从可能跑到不可能中去;
  • 定律三:在任何一项足够先进的技术和魔法之间,我们无法做出区分。

When, however, the lay public rallies round an idea that is denounced by distinguished but elderly scientists and supports that idea with great fervor and emotion -- the distinguished but elderly scientists are then, after all, probably right. [...] But the only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible. [...] The French edition of this book rather surprised me by calling this Clarke's Second Law. I accept the label, and have also formulated a Third: Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. As three laws were good enough for Newton, I have modestly decided to stop there.
