I posted this on Reddit a while ago and it sparked some really good discussion and recommendations.

I really like The Expanse - as it doesn’t just discuss the attempted terraforming of Mars and the colonisation of the Main Asteroid Belt but also

    Yeah, it’s quite easy to predict things that may happen in the future. After all, people are reading your story in the present so they can’t call you out should your prediction be wrong.

    But it takes a greater mind to be able to consider the second order effects that it will have.
