HANSOM NO TIME LIKE THE PRESENT

摘要

Fancy building a base on Mars, or a spaceport? Or how about a luxury underwater property development, or a floating city, or a vertical farm? According to research from a bunch of leading futurologists, including Robot Wars judge Noel Sharkey, such projects will be the pipeline of the future. One futurologist, James Bellini, even claims there are schemes on the go right now looking to build supersonic pods that transport people between cities at 1,000km an hour. The research coincided with the Institute of Engineering and Technology's Engineering the Future festival, which aims to inspire the next generation of engineers.
