Yes! You should watch : Lost in Space, The time tunnel, etc... If you like sci-fi A LOT of science was once imagined, postulated and explored in literature, film and eventually cinema. The OP is correct, but I'm just expanding the answer. Almost all science was at one time "fiction" simply by the antonym of "fact." However, it was not always published in what one would call a traditional manner of "SciFi." Once, in Primary School I had to do a report on Luna (the Moon). I found a book in the School library that contained some wild ideas, wildly incorrect observations and calculations regarding Space itself, and a really wild closing to the chapter on Luna; "...perhaps someday Man may journey to the Moon, or beyond!" I am NOT making that up! Cheers!

Science fiction is fiction or non fiction?
the stuff could happen and the phenomenon has a sort of scientific "explanation" behind it, plus science fiction usually is more futuristic.Science fiction stories are based on a reasonable extrapolation of known science and technology, and once that extrapolation is made it cannot be changed arbitrarily without explanation to the reader/viewer. H. G. Wells & Isaac Azimov stories are generally excellent examples.Because fiction is included.Take away the fiction and you have a thought experiment, like what Einstein was fond of telling.

Can a kite go into space?
Not from Earth. There are a couple of reasons. There is no 'air' in space, so there would be nothing to blow the kite once it left the Earth's atmosphere. The second is that the length of the string would make it too heavy to get that high. The size of the kite would have to be huge in order to support enough string to get that high. There are 'solar winds' that come off the sun. Some science fiction writers have contemplated the ability for vessels to travel away from stars on these currents.
