Futurism blog - 'The Future that never was'.

I like Futurism, it's hit or miss; but there have been some amazing hits. Such as automatic sliding doors ala Star Trek (1950's).

There are a lot of examples of Futurists ideas getting it right, but there has been some classic misses (thankfully) in there. Such as the idea of exploding hydrogen bombs to propel a huge spacecraft for deep space travel. See below:Project Orion (1957)

Check out this blog paleo future that tracks the ideas of the past (with some very close predictions)
