Anything Space related.

Maybe this isn't a specific technology, but it seems like humans would've completed a round trip to mars by now. As well as some rudimentary colonization of the moon.

I feel like it’s a rubber band that’s been stretched with potential energy, except that it’s the potential for innovation in the space industry. We’ve got so many converging technologies that will snowball and lead to new self-reinforcing industry. Think of how valuable a 3D-printed cloned organ would be that could only be grown in micro gravity. Inflatable space habitats will definitely be a thing. Automation and self-multiplying robots will be a thing on the moon.

We rather turn earth into an uninhabitable planet you need to seek underground shelter on.

It was originally thought we would land on mars in the 80s
