Assorted Slang & Terminology Volume 5 – Sci-Fi

The Assorted Slang & Terminology series is a collection of pdfs that give you a glossary or series of terms themed around a certain subject.

This edition is themed around Science-Fiction, or Sci-Fi for short, with a bit of real-world science terms thrown in for good measure.

Disclaimer/Note from the Author - This pdf is not meant to be to be an “end-all” document, more a starting point for your own research. As such, mostly due to space and time restraints, some terms have been left out - if every bit of terminology was left in, this publication would be unwieldy, not useful and probably never finished!

Sample entries:Big Dumb Object/BDOThe term for any mysterious object, typically of extra-terrestrial or unknown origin and possibly immense power, generates an intense sense of wonder by its mere existence.

DisruptorAn energy weapon/effect that break apart, or disrupts, the energy bonds holding the molecules of the target together.

UranianAn inhabitant of Uranus.
