You have 27, or 28 in your "top ten" list.  OK.

I think a list like this should include:
"Starship Troopers" by Robert Heinlein.
"Rendezvous with Rama" by Arthur C. Clarke
"The Fountains of Paradise" by Arthur C. Clarke
"The Songs of Distant Earth" by Arthur C. Clarke
"2001 a Space Odyssey" (and 2010 and 2061) by Arthur C. Clarke
"Childhoods End" by Arthur C. Clarke
Robert Silverberg deserves inclusion from his number of books,
longevity, and variety of ideas,  I'll suggest "Nightwings",
"Hawksbill Station" and "Tower of Glass".
"Seed of Light" by Edmund Cooper
