Project "Atomic rockets" brings "science" into "science fiction". It tells about space travel and spaceships from the science perspective, gives some basic terms, formulas, estimations. And there is a lot of text.
The best place to start is "common misconceptions":

How to make a small 20 century town map:
1. Search for a small town that fits what you want. Some names can be found on wiki, r/kidsonbikesrpg, r/gravityfalls.
2. Download Google Earth desktop version. The web version won't do.
3. Find the city you selected. Search by name didn't really work for me, so I copy-pasted coordinates from the wiki page.
4. Check "View / Historical Imagery" and go all the way back to the year you want. For the city I selected, there were awful images from 1985 and quite nice black and white images from 1994 which is not bad.
5. Use "Add Placemark" to annotate the map.
6. Use "File / Save / Save Image" to export the result.
7. Also, there are great vintage high resolution maps at https://www.oldmapsonline.org/.

I've scanned it through and it looks like the best fantasy ttrpg I've ever seen! At least, it presents a world I can believe in. Most of the other games leave too many questions how all this superpowerful magic didn't tear everything apart. And since it is OSR, you can play with it any classic dnd adventure.

DRM as the reason for Silence
I like the idea of Scream and technological decay, and find it easy to believe. However, I decided to add one more reason for the Silence and...

Observed from Earth, it would take 1.19 years, and would have travelled 0.56 light years.

Also, character sheet manager for DnD 5e. The free version art is very limited, though, and premium is a little expensive. However, it still can be a good inventory manager.
