Each of us has ever dreamed about what kind of future awaits us - will we fly through the air, teleport, go on vacation in space? The fact is that no one can predict the future - but that doesn't stop us from thinking about it. And the same thing happened already in the past - our ancestors also imagined what the world would be like in the past or - what the world is like today.

Wanderers is a vision of human penetration into space based on scientific ideas and concepts of the future. And in a short sci-fi film, Erik Wernquist shows what our future in space would look like if it ever comes to fruition. The locations are digitally recreated real places in the solar system, based on real photos and maps available. Are you interested in what the human conquest of space will look like somewhere far in the future? Then don't look into the glass ball, but watch this amazing film on the screen.
Connoisseurs of battleships, when the name Dreadnought is mentioned, they will recall the homonymous battleship HMS Dreadnought from 1906, which represented a giant advance in the military technology of the Royal Navy at the time and surpassed all military vessels up to that time. Its successor and almost namesake is about to do the same, which its predecessor would be proud of, as it is based on the latest technology and will be made of extremely strong plastic and graphene, a form of carbon that is two hundred times stronger than steel and is considered the strongest, thinnest and the most flexible material in the world.
Every man wants to have his own "Batman's cave", a place where it's just him and his "toys", where he retreats to drink beer or indulge in some other pleasure. Engineer Jono Williams did not dig, but built his Skysphere "cavity" above the ground. It is a solar-powered "tree house" with a 360-degree view, controlled by a smartphone, and located in the land of the long white cloud.
The visionary and futurist Ray Kurzweil, who was hired by Google several years ago, often bombards us with provocative but often accurate predictions, such as that a computer will beat a human at chess (it already happened) and that we will be surrounded by autonomous vehicles vehicles (already happening). It is also known for the theory of singularity, a concept that futurists like Kurzweil use to explain the development of the world from the point of view of technological development.
Microsoft returns with a fresh vision of the near future, which is also packaged every year in a video entitled Productivity Future Vision, in which it presents its technological favorites of the future. He will somehow play a big role in it, probably bigger than ever, that is, if his predictions, which he summarized in a 6-minute video, come true. It is clear, however, that new technologies are radically changing our everyday life and work. But what does this mean for the future?
We often have the word vision in our language. People, companies, countries. Vision says a lot. It is what makes the present more bearable, what offers hope, it is a motive. It is a lifeline and also a prediction. And like weather forecasts and meteorologists, visions and visionaries are also fallible. Let's take a look at some bold predictions from the last century that have been or are still waiting for possible realization.
It wasn't long ago when screens on the backs of the front seats in airplanes were science fiction, when a call from a height of 11 thousand meters was impossible, let alone a wireless network. Today, all this is taken for granted. And those phones on airplanes. Those are long gone. As well as there is no longer a user who only wants to fly. Here is now a technologically "aware" traveler. The range is suitable for this, and airlines, including NASA, are always on the hunt for improvements.
If anything, we associate luxurious vessels with luxury. And although most of us have ownership over them only in our dreams, it is not forbidden to dream, is it? But mega-yachts, which ordinary mortals come closest to in a waking state in marinas, have their buyers, otherwise the offer would not be so flourishing. Let's see what the spring of the future has to offer and what will one day cause waves and waves of excitement.
You always take something to eat to work. Some yogurt, salad, sandwich or dessert. And what do these foods have in common, besides calories? Waste. Everything comes in packaging that ends up in the trash at the end of the day. In the US, college students alone produce 30.4 kg of lunchbox-related trash each year, and the rest of us probably aren't any better. Packaging is a necessity, but thanks to the Tomorrow Machine, it is no longer a waste.
If Airbus's futuristic idea for the plane is anything to go by, their future is bright. Not only because the claustrophobic tubes will be replaced by a transparent shell, thus allowing natural light to spill over the entire passenger body, but because flying will become a unique experience and not just travel from point A to point B.
The Bavarians have presented a study of a top-class sedan, which is said to indicate the new 7 series in many ways.
