Who knows if it's realistic or not? We're talking a civilization that's several centuries into the future. And I dunno about you, but I'm pretty sure technology and science now can do things thought impossible in just the 1700's. That said, there are fantastical elements, but I usually justify those with Minovsky Physics or some form of internal consistency. But the overall goal is to create what I believe is a good story and a good setting, so if some rules need to be broken, so be it.
