For Isaac Asimov, he was "the most accurate predictor of the future". Arthur C. Clarke (December 16, 1917, Minehead - March 19, 2008, Colombo, Sri Lanka) English writer and scientist worked as an educational auditor after graduating. During World War II, he specialized in radar at the RAF and later studied Mathematics and Physics at King’s College London.

He was president of the British Interplanetary Society and assistant editor at Science Abstracts before dedicating himself entirely to writing in 1951. He lived in Sri Lanka from 1956 until his death. Several of his works, such as 2001: A Space Odyssey, were successfully adapted into films.

Awarded as a Knight of the British Empire, he also received awards such as the Nebula, the Hugo (twice), and the Locus. He wrote both scientific and science fiction books, highlighting 2001 (and its sequels), Rendezvous with Rama, The Sands of Mars, and The Songs of Distant Earth, among others.
