At the time, serial radio dramas in the US had become popularly known as soap operas because many were sponsored by soap manufacturers. |

Hartwell and Cramer define space opera as "colorful, dramatic, large-scale science fiction adventure, competently and sometimes beautifully written, usually focused on a sympathetic, heroic central character and plot action, and usually set in the relatively distant future, and in space or on other worlds, characteristically optimistic in tone. |

While these early stories included interplanetary and interstellar travels and adventures, intergalactic travels and galaxies other than the Milky Way would not be introduced until years later when tales like Outside the Universe (Weird Tales, JulyGÇôOctober 1929) by Edmond Hamilton appeared, after Hubble had published his discoveries in 1924-1925, and made the public aware that the universe expanded beyond our own galaxy and was much larger than the limited and static universe people had believed in until then. |

Smith's later Lensman series and the works of Edmond Hamilton, John W. Campbell, and Jack Williamson in the 1930s and 1940s were popular with readers and much imitated by other writers. |

Some examples are seen in the works of Alastair Reynolds or the movie The Last Starfighter. At other times, space opera can concur with hard science fiction and differ from soft science fiction by instead focusing on scientific accuracy such as The Risen Empire by Scott Westerfeld. Other space opera works may be defined as a balance between both or simultaneously hard science fiction as well as soft science fiction such as the Dune prequel series by Kevin J. Anderson and Brian Herbert, the Star Wars series created by George Lucas or the Babylon 5 series J. Michael Straczynski. |
