In this article, we explore the singularity of scientific practice in its relation to fiction, affirming the existence of a fictional aspect that not only makes the invention of science possible, but is also present in any gesture of knowledge production. We understand that science fiction, in its turn, works by investing in such speculative aspect that drives the production of theories, but turning the method of speculation towards science itself, since it imagines the possible unfolding of technoscientific development. Since such speculations about the future have predominated in Western imagination, we affirm that, in this gesture of creating possible worlds, there is what we could call a chronopolitics, that is, a type of politics that affects time.
