So when do you think our civilization will have the following technologies or never? Feel free to add to the list (by continuing the numbering for reference)
1. Elimination/Reversal of aging in humans
2. Quantum Computing (successful enough for wide commercial use)
3. Reasonably fast form of intra-galactic travel
4. Reasonably fast form of inter-galactic travel
5. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strong_AI" (as outlined in the first bullet list in the page)
6. Nuclear fusion (again successful enough for wide commercial use)
My guesstimates 1. about a century 2. 30 years 3. a few centuries 4. several centuries 5. a few centuries 6. 50 years
I think 3 and 4 would require a major breakthrough in physics to accomplish though.
