There are myriad definitions for what constitutes science fiction. Generally, it involves some variation on science or technology playing a key role either in plot, theme, or setting, and having the science involved exceed humanity’s current abilities in that field.

He calls it Star Trek: Legacy and he felt that the two scores of the films sounded similar, but with Jerry Goldsmith's Star Trek soundtrack sounding a bit more 70's. He explains:
"I always thought the two film's...
