I have recently read some articles that deal with future technologies such as invisibility and teleportation. There are some magazines, websites and scientists such as Micho Kaku who make future predictions based on the latest cutting-edge technologies and scientific data.

My question is this. Does anyone know of any peer-reviewed journals, magazines, websites that cover future technology predictions? I assume peer-review was designed to correct weaknesses and errors in the work and performance of papers that primarily deal with hard science, not predictions, which are subjective. Regardless, can someone help me with what I am looking for?

Thank you!

Many papers contain some statement of future possibilities of an application of the paper's subject.

I am interested in invisibility and quantum teleportation in specific. Many scientists say we will be able to turn 3D objects in visible light invisible in two decades time. As for QT they say in the next few centuries, some say the end of this century. As in they will be able to teleport humans.

Where would I go to find peer-review on things of this nature? Do they even exist?

I don't know- look for yourself. The challenge will be filtering out the genuine research from the crackpots.
