This paper explores how new materialisms and a new climatic regime complicate the nature of science under post-truth conditions. My focus is on the limits of relationality, while pursuing a fruitful and promiscuous speculation. I venture into this topic by exploring the power of speculative fiction to help us imagine and re-craft a †̃scienceâ€TM adequate to pluralistic posthuman ecologies
