No one knows for sure how the future plays out entirely. We can only predict it. As Yoda always says, "Clouded the future is," and things like that. Will the future be like Star Wars? I'd think that would be pretty cool. We might have flying cars, and hyperspace travel will be possible. It all seems so cool, but if we were there, then it would just be every day life. In Star Wars, they have some pretty high tech communication, like talking across entire galaxies or using holograms when communicating. There are so many things that they do that we are edging closer to making possible. Just because it's Sci-Fi doesn't mean it isn't based off of our real lives. Of course, none of the Jedi in Star Wars are checking their Tweets or Facebook status, talking smack online about the Sith, or posting pictures on their walls. But just because they don't think it's important, doesn't mean we won't. Maybe we'll use Facebook as a way to communicate with other aliens from different planets. They might have a system like Facebook setup and maybe use computer language like 1's and 0's. Instead of going to war against another alien race, we just might work together peacefully, and all because we have Facebook or Twitter.
It all seems so crazy, I know, but it's fun to think about. Since the future is so "clouded" as Yoda would say, then I'm not wrong for saying any of this. It just means I'm very creative about what we might be doing. That's all. As always, only time will tell.
I don't feel as if were "edging closer" to any of the things depicted on star wars. The matter of it is that we probably wont see our society at that level until a couple more centuries, if the human race hasn't thrown itself into extinction by then. The possibilities are endless but some of the smartest people in the world that work for the governments are building technologically advance machinery that causes harm to the world instead of good.
ReplyDeleteI agree with Patrick to an extent. I do, however, believe that we are at LEAST half a millenium away from Star Wars though. Remember that in Star Wars they are dealing with an ENTIRE galaxy. At the moment we can get to the moon. That distant is like one footstep in a billion step journey. I also believe it will take awhile for us to reach lightspeed (about 250 years minumum). I DO believe that it is possible to go quicker then light though even though Einstein thought it was impossible. The point of this semi-rant is that anything is possible especially what is called impossible. Afterall, they said we would never make it to the moon and we did that.
ReplyDeleteI do not agree with you, I think for all of this to happen it would be hundreds of years from now. Technology will change in the future because it has always evolves into more. Personally, I think one day from now technology will own the human society because of how fast we our evoloving.
ReplyDeletei think this techo is closer than we think, i really hope the tech in the Jetsons are close to, i want a house maid like Rosie. I would ask for a milk shake every day!!!
