In Seeking Out New Life and New Civilizations, LCC Chair Jay P. Telotte was quoted "Artists of every ilk respond well to allowing the imagination to play, and the farthest reaches of space would seem the ultimate possibility for such free play of imagination. In the realm of science fiction, there is special appeal, as evidence the number of books that suggest the genre is about satisfying a human impulse for wonder. Voyaging to the stars allows for stories that pointedly address that wonder."
