... Sawyer and Carl Sagan’s respective science-fiction novels Flash Forward and Contact, the underlying theme of effects of humanity on science is successfully demonstrated. More specifically, a better understanding of the effect of humanity can be derived by analyzing the main characters Lloyd Simcoe and Theo Procopides from Flash Forward and Eleanor Arroway from Contact. ... This event then came to be known as the Flash Forward. ... The bonus from all this searching is really comes up with nothing so it makes him work harder at the investigation so that he can create another flash forward so that he can get a better look at what is going on. Thus Lloyd Simcoe the protagonist in Flash Forward is the prime leader in showing that science is very affected by humanity.
The secondary character in Flash Forward is Theo Procopides. During the flash forward Theo doesn’t get a vision as he is dead in twenty one years. ... He knows he is murdered because a few people contact him about his death after he posts up a question an a message board dedicated to the flash forward. Also, the fact is that if he tried to focus on his research he could have helped the team figure out what went wrong and how to create the flash forward again. A woman that came forward told him that she was watching the news twenty one years in the future.
