- Neptune_in_fiction abstract "The planet Neptune has been used as a reference and setting in various films and works of fiction: In H. G. Wells's short story The Star, Neptune is destroyed in a collision with another supermassive object which reduces its orbital velocity to zero; the wreckage falls into the Sun, narrowly missing Earth. In the Captain Future series, Neptune is portrayed as a sea planet, not out of any scientific theory but evidently because Neptune is the Roman sea god. In Olaf Stapledon's 1930 epic novel Last and First Men, Neptune is the final home of the highly evolved human race. The planet is depicted as having a dense atmosphere but with a solid surface. In Hugh Walters' 1968 novel Nearly Neptune, the first manned expedition to Neptune ends in apparent disaster as a fire destroys vital equipment on board the spacecraft as it nears the planet. The planet served as the backdrop for the 1997 science fiction/horror film Event Horizon. The humorous short story, "The Elephants on Neptune" by Mike Resnick, was published in Asimov's Science Fiction, and was nominated for both a Hugo and a Nebula award (2001).The pilot of the TV movie Virtuality centers around a starship preparing to make a flyby of Neptune before leaving the solar system. In 2001 (or 2151, depending on your point of view), Star Trek made an official canon reference to the planet. Captain Jonathan Archer and his chief engineer were taking a final inspection pass around their new ship, the NX-01 Enterprise. Of the vessel's anticipated best speed, and with awe in his voice, Archer said, "Neptune and back in six minutes."Mothstorm (2008), a book in the Larklight Trilogy by Philip Reeve. Neptune is called Hades. The lizard-like Silth tow their miniature Sun into orbit of it, allowing them to inhabit it and rename it Snil. The remainder of the giant moths they farmed are taken there also. In the point and click game Anastronaut: The Moon Hopper, the player visits the planet Neptune in a future setting.".
