    April 4, 2063. That'll be depressing.

    Judging by life expectancies these days, its a good bet that I'll live to see 2063. I won't lose any sleep over it, but when April 4th comes and goes without any warp flight, it'll be a little, tiny bit depressing, don't you think?
    The truth is out there. Getting there, well thats a whole different can of worms.

    You never know, we might have invented something like it in that time...but, people thought we'd be living on the moon by now, so....I'm sure. If I'm still a trek fan in my old age I'll be looking up for a red, funky looking triangular ship...

    Wraith: "I am your death. That is all you need to know."
    Sheppard: "I prefer Steve."

      People's impression of the future of jetpacks and moon colonies was largely wrong. With enough expenditure, we may be able to have a colony on the moon. But there are always better ways to spend money. Instead, with the growth of the internet, access to information (and "other stuff") has never been easier.

      But I'm with you, on that day, I'll probably take a few minutes to look up into the sky.

          That was the day Zefram Cochrane(sp) made the first human warp flight and attracted the curiosity of the Vulcans who made first contact with Earth later that day. VERY significant in the trek 'verse.

            We're progressing slowly. But the main points about Star Trek is to be optimistic about the future and all humans to unite no matter what colour you are.

              After World War 3. But yes, to put aside our differences and get along for the good of all humanity.

                  From what I gather, it started with the eugenics wars back in the 1990's.

                    Well in that case I'd say we're doing Okay for the moment. I would trade warp for peace.

                          LoL I'll be lucky if I see 2063

                          If anyone manages to invent a time machine, come back and look me up so I can see 2063

                            I've started to panic over the asteriod that's supposed to hit Earth around 2800... I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight...
