''Un robot de laborator din Marea Britanie, denumit Adam, care poate gandi teorii si le poate testa in absenta implicarii factorului uman, a devenit prima masinarie capabila sa faca descoperiri stiintifice.

Operand intr-un laborator al Universitatii Aberystwyth din Wales, Regatul Unit, robotul a identificat procese genetice ale drojdiei, necunoscute inainte de oamenii de stiinta.. Nu numai ca Adam a identificat o ipoteza despre felul in care anumite gene ar trebui sa functioneze, dar a si desfasurat o serie de experimente pentru a-si demonstra "punctul de vedere". Evenimenul marcheaza o premiera, deoarece este intaia oara cand un asemenea sistem a facut o descoperire complet noua pentru stiinta. Performanta ii face pe cercetatori sa spere deja in alcatuirea unor echipe stiintifice formate din oameni si roboti, care sa colaboreze in laboratoare.''

''I'm sad to say in my debate team at the highschool I attend, we have the topic of the Advancing of Space Programs. Only 3 people agree to advance while the rest laugh at SETI, NASA, the ideas to expand the human race outwards into space. They call it a waste of money and time.
These are the people soon to be the future voters, citizens, and possibly leaders of our world's nations. I wish they could understand the words of Sagan, and realize the ignorance of their words.

So Stephen was wrong, and everyone who imagines that we could travel by our will through time.
Time travel in the future happens as explained by the theory of relativity. Acc to the Theory of relativity, the faster an object travels, the slower the time moves in the object's referential system.
If you could travel with a spaceship with 99% of the speed of light, what for you would be a week, it would take a hundred of years on the Earth.
BTW, The theory of relativity is a fact confirmed by plenty experiments made by scientists with clocks and supersonic aircraft.

Also, time travel in the future should be illegal.
Imagine that you travel 3.000 years into the future, in the year 5012. You see the way things are, collect information from this time, and return back in time, but you think to stop a bit in the year 2107.
You stay for some hours, and then you remind that you have a question and think to travel again in the year 5012, in the same day as in the previous travel. When you arrive you find a place totally different than that you knew from the previous travel.
Due to your influence from the year 2107, you have changed the future forever. Sure, that's very improbable, but possible.

Stephen Hawking once suggested that the absence of tourists from the future is an argument against the existence of time travel. And not only once.
Now, let's imagine we have a time machine and we travel 10.000 years in the past. In this time we don't see nothing around, just some trees and stones. And then let's imagine you are bored and hit a stone which is thrown 3 meters away. Than we go back in the time machine and go back to the future.
BUT!! In the normal past, a battle takes place between two men. One of them falls down and with the help of a rock he wins the battle and kills the other man.
Now that you changed the position of the rock, the primitive on the ground cannot pick the stone since it's 3 meters away and he is killed.
Therefore you have influenced and changed the past, and therefore the future. That man would have been the ancestor of 2.000.000.000 people in the year 2010.
If time travel will one day be possible, it will be illegal.

"Nanotechnology will extend our mental capacities to such an extent we will be able to write books within minutes.

"If we want to go into virtual-reality mode, nanobots will shut down brain signals and take us wherever we want to go. Virtual sex will become commonplace. And in our daily lives, hologram like figures will pop in our brain to explain what is happening.

"So we can look forward to a world where humans become cyborgs, with artificial limbs and organs."

Writing in The Sun, Mr Kurzweil said: "I and many other scientists now believe that in around 20 years we will have the means to reprogramme our bodies' stone-age software so we can halt, then reverse, ageing. Then nanotechnology will let us live for ever.

"Ultimately, nanobots will replace blood cells and do their work thousands of times more effectively.

I had to make a yt channel for a school project. But I didn't used the channel since i changed my ideas later. I didn't however deleted the channel. All my favourited videos there are documentaries, mostly with Carl Sagan, Michio Kaku, Stephen Hawking etc.
That channel is much more active than this one.

Internet will be everywhere, information . Humans will be able to take energy from everything, even from a rock since E=mc2, matter is compressed energy.
Human intelligence will be surpassed by Artificial intelligence. AI will process way faster than humans.
In an eventual war, all tanks, airplanes will be controlled by a single computer or more, like all the white pieces by a human player. The computer will play it's game with a mathematical precision like Deep Blue(chess playing computer- the machine won a six-game match by two wins to one with three draws against world champion Garry Kasparov).
Yet I imagine that in the future there will one day be a single global state so there will be no more war.
