I think that's where the problem lies.
The people who has a thorough understanding of the sciences (or are at least willing to put in hours of research) are not the ones writing the fiction.

Some fiction writers just try to replace sound scientific knowledge with the shock value of pessiimistic/ violent novels that we're getting right now.
