Looking into the future(updated 2 times)

Good things to expect in the not too distant future, from science.

1. Graphene : Is the closest that we're going to get to a superconductor at room temperature for a while. So I look forward to when a way is found to mass produce it for use in low resistance electrical circuits.
2. Flat lighting, and wall poster theaters : Will be here in a few years as Organic Light Emitting Diodes(OLED's) are mass produced for cheap soon. This will make low power usage bright flat ceiling lights. And with some circuitry can be a poster of differently colored OLED's to make a cheap low power usage home theater sized television.
3. No more cancer: If the promising microwave/ nanosphere/ intron, technology prooves to be successful in the next 2 years.
4. Artificial gecko skin: Will be invented very soon, because of the potential of it being useful in many different fields, and they have the beginnings of small scale prototypes already. It's sticky in every environment, and can be self cleaning, and is the strongest temporary hold.
5. Electric cars: Are the perfect car, with new battery technologies, can now replace the internal combustion engine and rarely require maintenance because of very few moving parts. And the motors are embedded in each wheel, so that you can turn by variable spin speed of each wheel. Also they have AC induction motors which don't require a high maintenance carbon brush commutator. And the gear switching is all electric, requiring no gears. And battery technology keeps advancing every day, which means further than 250 mile range on a charge, and only taking 30 minutes to charge, and longer lifespans of the actual batteries meaning less replacement costs.
6. Super capacitors: Will be game changing in the energy storage industry. They never degrade, have instant charge times, are almost 100% energy efficient, and even can have more energy density than the best batteries theoretically. Look to the new super capacitor being invented right now from EEstor on wikipedia. (A.K.A. EEstor inc.). And they will also be in a new vehicle made by the company Zenn. It may also be wise to invest in the companies stock of Zenn or EEstor before they multiply and split by an online stock trading site like "E*trade"that should be reputable because of them being able to put commercials on TV. I was recently looking on youtube under "EEstor" and they said that ZENN automotive stock is a speculative stock. And that it's at 4$ right now and if the technology didn't work then the stock would drop to 1$ but if the technology did work then the stock price would rise to 20$/share. And I plan on investing at least $1,000 in their stock because if it works I will be able to buy one of their cars with gain in stock value. But I'm also willing to take the risk of loosing the money, because I believe in the science as being just as important of a new technology as fiber optics were when they were invented. Here's the stock info page. Also Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, on this Wikipedia page(Wikipedia is, I'd say, 99.8% fact) is a venture capital investment firm who counts Google and Amazon among their early-stage successes, has also invested heavily in the company. Look under their investments for where it says Eestor as a 2007 investment. And also Lockheed Martin is investing in EEstor for sole use of the patent in the US, in the military, see: This press release. Look to EEstor,inc.'s private company information page also. And also since watching almost every video that they have on youtube under the search "ZENN car" I now have confidence in investing in a company that is as professional as them. Even if the bigger car companies out there will one day overtake them, by getting license to the same capacitor technology. Also definitely read the press releases on ZENN motors website, under "news". http://www.zenncars.com/
   
7. Focus fusion: Is a new form of energy production that has no nuclear waste, or any other types of waste. And a reactor can be made for only $300,000. And the reactor doesn't need to be replaced like regular fission reactors from neutron emission corrosion. And it's only $60/kilowatt instead of the $1000/kilowatt of natural gas energy prices. I got this from the june 2oo8 edition of discover magazine on page 64. Also see this information on focus fusion.
