What level of technology is humanity is currently in right now.?

Question

A low B average C advanced type one of these as a answer or yall can write a longer answer.

Answer 1

It's in the crapper right now. Thanks for asking

Answer 2

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale

The Kardashev scale is a general method of classifying how technologically advanced a civilization is, first proposed in 1964 by the Russian astronomer Nikolai Kardashev. It has three categories, based on the amount of usable energy a civilization has at its disposal and increasing logarithmically:

Human civilization is currently somewhere far below Type I, as it is able to harness only a portion of the energy that is available on Earth. The current state of human civilization has thus been named Type 0. Although intermediate values were not discussed in Kardashev's original proposal, Carl Sagan argued that they could easily be defined by interpolating and extrapolating the values given above. He calculated humanity's current civilization to be 0.7.

Type I - A civilization that is able to harness all of the power available on a single planet, approximately 1016 W. The actual figure is quite variable; Earth specifically has an available power of 1.74×1017 W. Kardashev's original definition was 4×1012 W. (Kardashev had originally defined Type I as a "Technological level close to the level presently attained on earth", "presently" meaning 1964.)

Type II - A civilization that is able to harness all of the power available from a single star, approximately 1026 W. Again, this figure is variable; the Sun outputs approximately 3.86×1026 W. Kardashev's original definition was 4×1026 W.

Type III - A civilization that is able to harness all of the power available from a single galaxy, approximately 1036 W. This figure is extremely variable, since galaxies vary widely in size. Kardashev's original definition was 4×1037 W.
All such civilizations are purely hypothetical at this point. However, the Kardashev scale is of use to SETI researchers, science fiction authors, and futurists as a theoretical framework.

Type IV - This is 1046W; within a few orders of magnitude of the energy output of the visible Universe. Such a civilization approaches or surpasses the limits of speculation based on current scientific understanding, and may not be possible. Frank J. Tipler's Omega point would presumably occupy this level. Zoltan has argued that such a civilization could not be detected, as its activities would be indistinguishable from the workings of Nature (there being nothing to compare them to).

Type V - Energy control over a super cluster of stars. Energy uses would be mix of Type IV and Type VI

Type VI - Energy control over multiple universes; a power level that is technically infinite. Energy uses would typically start around 1066W, if one would keep with the pattern of previous extensions (Types IV and V, for example).
The civilization may have gained the ability to alter physical laws across multiple universes
These civilizations can escape a dying universe, and thereby become eternal; it is possible that less advanced civilizations can do so as well.

Type VII - Hypothetical status of a God, able to create universes at will, using them as an energy source. Energy output would be virtually infinite, limited only by the number and size of universes created, possibly starting at roughly 1076 or even 10100W. This type of civilization would most likely be eternal, as creating universes would probably require the civilization in power be outside of the universe(s) they are creating.

Answer 3

Hard to say because you can't tell the full extent of the technology that can be developed by humans. In case of a college course, for example you know the extent of the subject that is covered by the course and so you can grade the level of learning. Here you don't know the extent of technology possible and so you dont know the level which current humnity achieved.

Answer 4

Supposedly advanced human cultures have come and gone thousands (and possibly millions) of years ago. I don't know how we rated compared to them. Maybe a C, if a culture with antigravity technology and fusion is an A+.

I figure when our grand culture is blown up to hell, the cultures following us will have a hard time finding coal and oil, assuming they follow a similar techology tree and develop internal combustion engines as we did.

Answer 5

Considering this is the highest level we've ever had? An A+ Compared to all those other planets no one believes exist? Still an A+ because only absolute loons believe they're there.

Answer 6

-1

Answer 7

Information age. We are discovering the importance of education in obtaining world piece more than ever before I think.

Answer 8

complete


slow motion retardness


look hwo retards are peopel on here

sciientist are the same jsut hey got a diploma

Answer 9

I don't really care, but I'm checking if Yahoo is going to give me a point for this, because they are gypping me on my points today.

Answer 10

Well, seeing as how we have came farther in the last 100yrs then we have in the last 2000yrs ..I would have to say C

Answer 11

d because are resources are limited and we must now advance too a more complicated civilization
