This story connects to our definition of science fiction because it includes things that haven't happened yet but are a possibility. The ideas in the story accurately show a vision that could potentially become real within the existence of humans.
This story can connect to the concept of extrapolation because it includes many things that are not yet part of our daily lives. A few of these things are, a fully automated house, equipped with cleaning mice, a stove that does all the cooking, voices and alarms that alert the inhabitants of deadlines, a bath that fills itself, a cigar that lights itself, a house that talks, and many more. Another large extrapolation is the idea of atomic warfare that was shown by the silhouettes burned into the sides of the house.
I did not enjoy this story as much as I have enjoyed the others because this story provides no closure or explanation of what happened or how the rest of the world is involved. It was too much of a cliff-hanger for me to really enjoy it.
