This article explores the translation features of English science fiction literature from the 20th century. The genre of science fiction has gained immense popularity and significance over the years, with numerous works being translated into different languages to reach a global audience. The translation of science fiction presents unique challenges due to the complex scientific concepts, futuristic technologies, and imaginative worlds depicted in the original texts. This study examines the strategies and techniques used by translators to convey the essence and nuances of English science fiction works while maintaining the integrity of the original text. By analyzing specific examples and case studies, this article sheds light on the creative approaches employed by translators to bridge the cultural and linguistic gaps in science fiction literature, ultimately enhancing cross-cultural communication.
