Does the baby get a “choice?”

Some gravitational Lensing going on here I think!

The Galifreyans helped design it.

Of course there are inertial dampeners. If not, the crew would be a slimy spot on the wall. If you dampen a 100G maneuver at 100 to 1, you still have a 1G maneuver

We would also mine asteroids to get the alloys we need. It becomes cheaper over time.

Most materials for starships... Alloys, plastics, carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, etc all come from mining asteroids. Once you have made the initial investment and have robotic manufacturing, the second through the 100th starship get cheaper and cheaper to manufacture. With fusion power and replicators, it becomes much…

You use it.

They will also throw wet blankets on every party. Had Einstein listened to “experts”, there would have been no Relativity.

It will happen. All Carbon Nano tubes and graphene need are reliable ways to print it in bulk that doesnt cost a fortune and already the qty manufactured in one pass is multiplying by 10 every couple of years while the price goes down by the same amount. Its only a matter of time. The cool thing about bundles of CNT…

Don’t need to get rid of the hypothetical. Thats what makes NEW discoveries even possible.

Amen. We are on our way. Some just don’t want to admit it yet. They don’t believe in the journey, only things that are handed to them with pre calculated explanations, already worked out.

Gravity, Relativity and Quantum Mechanics were considered “Magic” at one time.

Any talk of atomic power would have been just as fantastical as FTL drives before Einstein. There is nothing we cannot imagin that we can’t acomplish

You’re in the minority.

they would be “New buildings” and malls and shops and parks...

Lasers, ultra sound and infrared doppler sensors can easily tell the difference between a reflection or a pot hole. The software will not remain static. It will get better with every iteration.

as good as they seem thought, Barnes and Nobles has been on shaky ground for a long time. They just aren’t dead ... yet.

Handlers could be easily automated.

In short term, it would exactly the same. In the long term, you will only call a car when you actually need one. Eventually your phone becomes smart enough to anticipate when you need one and and you wont even remember the last time you actually requested one.

These new cars will be all electric, using Tesla’s new batteries and have 90% fewer moving parts to go bad. They will have a 20 hour a day duty cycle where they are taken to car wash like facility, scanned and cleaned in that 4 hour window. Then every month or when there is a fault, they will be taken offline for a…
