Really? Why do you suppose? In 50-100 years, I can easily see us having a permanent presence on another planet, fully automated vehicles and a Terminator like military comprised completely of robots. That world (if true), technologically, would look amazingly different than how we live today.
Another planet in our solar system? Sure. But even the nearest planet beyond our Solar system is about 11 light years away. And getting there anytime soon is an unfeasible goal according to Physics. Perhaps the Earth would be different 50 to 100 from now, but I wouldn't bet too much on any exciting activity going on outside of our planet.
Unless we figure out how to create realistic full-color 3D holograms, or at least highly-improved glasses-free stereographic displays. In that case, anything pre-stereography will look very "flat", and the relatively few stereographic photos taken today could have the same impact as these color photos from the article
Really? I think it will mean more than it does now. The pace at which technology advances seems to be increasing exponentially, at least that's my perception.
I can't imagine what will change even in the next 10 years, let alone the next 50-100 years.
