There wouldn't be any fictional examples. They'd just be examples of Accidentally-Correct Writing.
Is there a trope similar to Fair for Its Day but about scientific knowledge? For a non fiction example: the Ancient Greeks guessed a lot of stuff right (such as the Earth being round, matter being made of atoms etc), and figured it out WAY before most of the world did.
