I believe man will develop more in the future. Most of the things we see on sci-fi movies will be made a reality.
No doubt... maybe sooner than we think.
Nascent AI comes to mind.
Amazing stuff underway.

As at then (1963) they'd be thinking that it's impossible but look around now and see the possibilities. This just gave me hope about future technology........

Daniel 4:12
But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

The Greatest Scam that will hit you is when you Close ur eyes here and open it in Hell!
REPENT NOW that you have opportunity and stop chasing shadows!
REPENT now! Come to JESUS to avoid Weeping and Wailings
Hell Fire is not a Place of picnic!

time travelling doesn't mean going to the future, I'm saying humans will time travel to the past and probably to the dinasour age
Its all about understanding the speed of light,
Light has a speed and the light that sets here today will get to the star years later, that means if u are standing on the sun which is our nearest star u will be seeing 8mins into the past, also if u are in another galaxy and look at Nigeria, u may see when Obasanjo was the president
I can't explain it but time travel is here, and u better believe than having African mentality

I had this paperback my dad bought for me in grade school way back in the early eighties that detailed the world of future innovations, the realities, the technologies, the economics and graded them according to their possibilities in every field of endeavour; agriculture, energy, information and communications technology, health and medical sciences, engineering, personal care products, everything.

I lost it in transit between life but I could vividly remember some of the technologies that wowed me back then. Some in reality today like electric and hydrogen fuel cells automobiles, medical surgeries by remote sensing, others which are doubtful and will be resisted such as hydrogen from coal gas and others which remain a distant dream underwater habitats and space colonies.

Very interesting stuff. The human specie is only limited I believe by its ability to dream great things. That's is also why I believe in divinity because it removes all hindrances to mankind and paints a certain picture that everything exists and is only revealed by curiosity.

Just wish I could remember the title and recover it.

Nikolas Tesla predicted the realisation of today's smartphone in 1926. That newspaper can't claim a foresight that is not synonymous with journalists.

planes uses bearings and if they go out of the way, they might get lost that doesn't mean they can't fly anywhere they want as long as they don't leave the earth's atmosphere.
When I mean cars will fly at different altitude, i mean cars will fly at different heights, its not like road transport that everyone will drive at same level and crash themselves, if u drive at 40meters above sea level and I drive at 55meters, how are we going to crash even if we move at same coordinates

Time travel is impossible. It is only theoretical. And mind you I an not religious. I am not saying this from the religious point of view.
If it is possible to travel into the future. Then it means all future events has happened already and your act of time travel is part of the event that has happened. So it is not a delibrate effort, it is a predetermined event. What it means is, we humans ain't determinant of our actions but all actions we make are predetermined.
Except you are logical and philosophical you won't understand what I just said

Technology should allow me download food...

And allow me teleport...

If my hubby travels to America and I miss him, I'll just download a teleporting app and telport straight away to America. grin

Adding a 'Notification alert' or 'Allow/Block button' would make sense grin since you want to be showing up everywhere I go under the pretext of missing me.
