Since the 1940s, science fiction has kept staging the same trial. A superior power arrives, whether Q, the Metrons, Klaatu, Galactus or a Celestial, and asks whether humans deserve to survive, to join the community of the stars, or simply to be left alone. Real-world science asks the question from the other side: humanity has sent plaques, a golden record and radio messages to listeners who have never replied.\n\nThe answers fall into a few families. The most frequent are compassion and restraint, love and bonds, capacity to change and potential and growth, but the arguments made most often are not the ones that win most often. Defiance, unity across difference, self-sacrifice and love win most: unity ends with humanity spared in seven of nine stories, love in eight of twelve. Potential, change and compassion are respected but provisional, and tend to earn probation or a postponed verdict. Humanity's self-portrait, the case our real-world messages make, has never received a verdict at all.\n\nDeeds beat words. Kirk sparing the Gorn, Bud diving to his death in The Abyss and Alicia Masters showing the Silver Surfer kindness carry more weight than any speech: acts of mercy, love and sacrifice win in ten of fifteen stories, words in seven of nineteen. And the verdict almost never closes. Survival is common, but a full acquittal is rare: only three stories raise humanity to equal standing. Elsewhere the ruling is probation, deferral, or, as Q tells Picard, 'the trial never ends'.\n\nHumanity is often not its own best advocate. The Doctor, the Minbari Delenn, the synthetic Isaac and the Eternals speak for us, and almost one fictional trial in three has a non-human advocate. Fiction also turns the tables. When humans sit in judgement, as Clara Oswald does over the creature in the Moon, Ender over his own xenocide, Shepard over the geth and a congressional committee over Ellie Arroway, the verdicts are the least clear of all.", "size": [8, 8], "position": { "x": 455.718, "y": 42.9, "z": 0 }, "features": { "resizeTextToFit": true } }, { "ID": "ST-humanity-defends-itself", "name": "Humanity defends itself", "type": "Stance", "properties": { "Moment count": 32 }, "description": "Humanity defends itself: humans make their own case, by argument or by what they do.
