Loading...Why don’t we have flying cars, moon colonies or hoverboards yet? No, seriously. For many decades, these future technologies have been promised, and the age old “In 20 years that technology will be common.” saying has been used over and over. Why haven’t these techs actually become common, or at least possible?
Well, there are multiple reasons, and it really depends on what technology you’re talking about. For instance, a moon colony may very well be possible sometime around 2030, but flying cars just don’t work in many different ways, with safety, logistics and more just not possible. But, there are many more techs that we all have inside secretly been hoping for (like teleportation!) that Kevin from Vsauce2 explains in this great video.
And hey, another Vsauce video with a cameo by Bill Nye! Awesome! (and hey, even though he’s only on camera for 10 seconds in this one, just him being there makes the video seem all the more reputable)
