In recent years I've been getting a lot of enjoyment out of media that presents past SF as actually having happened... TV programs like Warehouse 13 and graphic novels like Planetary suggest teams of people acting as caretakers to our "secret past," etc. Often they present themselves as the one thing that's kept our world from being changed irrevocably (and usually badly) if these secrets get out.

They have often included elements of magic as well as science, suggesting both can coexist... but usually don't coexist well.
