- Mars Colony -2050
A small group of scientists and explorers will form a colony on Mars. The group will be completely independent, growing their own food in greenhouses. Both the U.S. space program and the European Space Agency have projected a long-term vision of a mission to Mars before 2030, with the idea of developing a colony. Many supporters for such a colony are already making plans. You can read about them at various sites, including Red Colony.com, which offers the mars exploration illustration above.
Time Travel -2050 and beyond
Amos Ori, a physics professor at Technion University in Israel, said in 2005 that he has compiled a mathematical model that defines the conditions under which time travel might be successful. He said our laws of physics do not rule out the possibility of time travel, and he said "I write mathematically. That doesn't mean I know how to implement it practically. However … if inhabitants of some highly advanced civilization could set up the conditions … they might be able to travel in time." He is quoted in an article in USA Today saying it will require "absolute emptiness - a vacuum … That means that, in principle, a closed, time-like curve could happen naturally, possibly through cataclysmic astronomical collisions in the abyss of space."
Brain Downloading -2050 and beyond
According to Ian Pearson, a British Telecom "futurologist," humans will be able to download information, images, memories, feelings and more to their brains by the year 2050. Also, by this time everything already in your brain can be downloaded to a computer and saved. This will allow digital immortality, because a person's brain activity can be saved forever and also downloaded and uploaded forever.
Other Possibilities by 2046-2150
The following are excerpted from the British Telecom Technology Timeline . - Political correctness creates new dark age
- Whole generation unable to effectively read, write, think, and work
- Human genetic engineering creates hostile super-race
- Humans assimilated into net
- Time travel works with humans
- Immortality chip - people move into cyberspace
- Faster-than-light travel by 2100
