What do you want to live long enough to see?

I want to be able to witness the colonization of another planet, or at the very least our moon. Maybe even go there one day, but I know that's ultra highly unlikely within the next 50 years. What about you peeps?

    I want to see the North Korean regime collapse. It's inevitable with so much technology.

      25 million brainwashed people would be a tough task for basically the entire world. I do want to see this happen too tho.

        Only some of them are truly brainwashed, as evidenced by all those that try to escape. But you're right — the longer they're trapped there, the harder it'll be for them to reintegrate into the rest of the world (most likely South Korea).

    First contact with aliens.. but realistically it would have probably already happened if they existed.

      Not really, given the vast size of the universe it's more probable that 'aliens' exist than don't. Also given the vast distances need to be travelled it's just as probable that our planet has already been visited in the distant past, as it would in the distant future. Therefore contact could really come at any moment in history.

      Unless governments are keeping it secret... ya know.

    Warp drive has been invented and we can travel to other solar systems within decades not thousands of years. Also, life extension even to a degree where people can live comfortably to 150 or so without loosing their mind at about 110.

    The singularity. Some people fear the machine uprising but I don't really. If it got to a point where I could transfer my conciousness to a machine I would effectively be immortal, I could launch myself into space and just hibernate. What if I hit something and am destroyed you ask, it's a good thing I sent myself out more than once. Of course then it becomes a question of when do I stop being me? That's a more philosophical thing in my opinion though.
