![]() 6137 forum posts 893 photos | The last 30 years have seen some amazing mind boggling stuff compared to the previous 30 years Does this mean the next 30 years is going to advance at the same kind of pace?? At what point does it start to plateau? |

462 forum posts 113 photos | My view. A lot of what has happened in the last 30 years is down to the developments in computing technology - imagine designing and making that ball on a manual machine tool!! The next 30 years will see yet more advances, but even more will we see biological development. Covid 19 vaccines have been made in months rather than years, in 30 years time it will probably be hours. DNA sequencing has come down from $3billion for the first human DNA sequencing ( 2003) to less than $1000 today. You ain't seen nothing yet. Edited By Peter Cook 6 on 15/07/2021 13:18:32 |
