Over a 100 years ago, artists were asked to depict the year 2000, these were the results

How about pictures predicting a hundred years from now.

At the rate we're going?

[redangus]

an awful lot of flying going on.

[metmom]

And yet, if you read the book The Peace Child, that is EXACTLY what happened when the indigenous tribes people of Paupa New Guinea saw their first float plane landing.

[PIF]

Minus the flying car

[Boogieman]

“which is no different from today...”

Au contraire... that picture shows a lady SMOKING A CIGARETTE... IN PUBLIC!!! Possibly even in a dining establishment!

Barbarians.

[Mopp4]

Some of those pics are kinda close...just the equipment is off.

I like how the video call is envisioned with the screen. But an improvement to the microphone was not foreseen. Still using the technology from the hand-crank wall phone....haha....

[jjotto]

Last I knew, people still smoked in public in Europe. Despite laws.

[Blue Highway]

Haha. What a beautiful world it will be. What a glorious time to be free... Great song!

100 years ago they said We’d be riding around in flying cars, but nope- we’re still learning how to wash our hands

[Campion]

“Battle-cars” are tanks. Only about 17 years away when that picture was drawn.

The most interesting thing that I notice is fashion...they either think that their the tops in fashion and that we will continue to dress like them, or they come up with some lame one-sie jumpsuit. Star Trek and its followers are guilty of the same thing. A lot of underwater scenes... the futurists forgot to ask why? Lots of planes stopping in mid air- apparently the laws of physics and aerodynamics can be changed.

They should have rather taken measures to insure the guy was not even known.

"Halt! You are not social distancing! See the people below? Be like them!"

[lee martell]

Perhaps there was an obsession with underwater living since at that time, no one had gone into Outer Space just yet.
There were exceptions, as in Jules Verne.

[A_perfect_lady]

So. Men dream of flying, and women dream of not having to do housework. LOL!

[Sirius Lee]

2 women ...smoking and drinkin’......

As long as we don't let the vote I think the future will be alright.

[AFreeBird]

Ditto

[ConservaTexan]

The egg hatching machine is a good “opposite” representation of how Planned Parenthood handles human life today.

[DigitalVideoDude]

I.G.Y. :-)

[Responsibility2nd]

They got it right.

Instead of talking to each other, they are FaceTiming other people.

And while that looks like a plate on the table, it’s not.

It’s Alexa.
