From time to time various science fiction references from popular culture have appeared in Star Trek as in-jokes. These references, mostly included in background displays, have also been cleverly referenced in spoken dialog.
Numerous science fiction writers have been referenced or acknowledged throughout the series, including Isaac Asimov (Amasov), Robert Heinlein, Ray Bradbury (USS Bradbury, Bradbury-class), Arthur C. Clarke (Clarke's Disease, 2001: A Space Odyssey), Theodore Sturgeon (Sturgeon), Jules Verne (Verne), and H.G. Wells (Wells-class).
The following articles contain references (or are homages) to other science fiction series written by these and other science fiction writers.
