scientifically proven in the future?

I was just thinking. Humankind certainly still has a ton of knowledge and discoveries to make. What if some of the things we talk about on this board that seem scientifically impossible really can be scientifically proven - just not YET - we need a few hundred or thousand years of advancements first.

I mean sustained human flight was thought to be scientifically impossible for a huge part of human history.

So, open your minds and give me your best predictions.

Thanks

Perhaps we can learn to feed, clothe, and house everyone in a reasonable manner, and maintain a relatively clean environment.

Like we never thought we'd be able to break the sound barrier, now scientists tell us we can't go faster than light?

Well we can't - its not the same. This is just one example but to a large extent the laws of physics have been observed to such a large extent that any new theories are just refinement - as an example consider that NASA still uses Newtonian equations to navigate through the planets instead of Einstein's slightly more accurate General Relativity - why? Because its not much more accurate and its more complicated.

Same with evolution, its 'only a theory' but any theory that replaced it would have to show how animals developed over time in to new species, explained the fossil record and did not resort to supernatural agents.

1. Earth lights. These are strange lights that appear just bejore earthquakes. they're on the verge of scientific acceptance.

2. The thylacine is supposed to have gone extinct 70 years ago, but is still being scene in its former range. Shouldn't be too long before it gets readmitted to the list of the living.

3. Big Brother. One day scientists will work out what on earth people see in that crap.

Men is not God and God lets man know only what need to know. Magic tricks for example. They are not real but do we want them real?
