Well, in anticipation for the new Star-trek movie and Terminator, i thought i'd start this fun, yet science related post.
When would you anticipate man to build a space vehicle capable of utilizing these apparent worm-holes for travel? I personally don't know the science behind this, could it even be possible with technological advances made in the distant future?
When will man be able to teleport, again is this even theoretically possible in the distant future, or is this just sci-fi ramblings?
When do you think man will develop a humanoid designed robot capable of superseding man in every thinkable aspect?
What do you guys think at our current rate of technological advances. Within your lifetime? Hundred or so years? Thousands of years? Never within the time frame of the existence of humans?
Is this stuff strictly left for hollywood, or could it be a reality one day?
I said 100+. That is sort of an average because I think they will get the super robot long before they develop teleportation or worm hold travel. There have already been developments with robots but many of the other things are still only theoretical.
Fun to think about though.

crap, you make a good point... Okay, umm, maybe state X years for super robot, and X years for worm hole travel separately from this point on. Didn't even occur to me, sorry!
Unfortunately i don't think i can split it up into 2 different polls though?

Utilizing wormholes for superluminal space travel is something that requires particles not yet believed to exist. Additionally, it would require some method of placing the 'exit' of the wormhole where you wish it to be instantly (or at least in superluminal timeframes), something I believe to be impossible, so I would put this one as physically impossible.
Alternatively, if exotic new particles are discovered, the Alcubierre Metric is also a viable means of superluminal space travel which doesn't require anything (except the exotic particles, of course) more far-fetched than a method of controlled distribution of gravitons, so the whole idea of superluminal travel I place at 100+ years.
Quantum teleportation is a reality, however it involves destroying a particle and creating an exact duplicate at a remote location, so while it's feasible in the next 100+ years, I'd never allow myself to be teleported.

This one, I put at 30+ years. We are currently making great strides in both robotics and artificial intelligence.
One future technology which Hollywood rarely touches is nanotechnology. The possibilities there are virtually endless, from near instantaneous healing to psychomorphic (shape controlled by the user's mind) appendages to tools which can become anything from an iPod to a crescent wrench. It always amazes me that Hollywood so rarely explores the storyline potential of nanotechnology.
Ahh' no.This is a concern and definalty pay attention to what I said.

You're right about nano technology, now that i think of it, the only nano-tech i can recall from hollywood would have to be that one terminator that turns into some sort of liquid metal as it appears. I'm guessing it was constructed of little nano-robotic cells? Or did this terminator do this through a different process?
Cool idea nonetheless, i'd like to see some more movies with such technology in it.
Quantum teleportation, well i learn something new everyday . This is why i love this forum!

On or around year 2012.
Goto www.coasttocoast.com, then go to pictures, then go to archives about seven or more pages back. Find the entry (artwork, drawing from dream return of the Anunnaki)? From what I gather this is a prophetic dream and the Anunnaki are bioengineered combinations of both past fifteen foot tall human off world giant as well as a type of nine foot tall bipedal very intelligent reptoid. These two were supposed to have gotten together collaborated to make Earth based man, outside of the influence of either the Atlantians or Lemurians.
If the predictions are right, you'll get to see their gadgetry up very close and personal. Answer you wanted?

Right Now! Get ready for a major movement where tech is involved. Soon , its superiority will cause all to be tracked, monitored and controlled. Then..it will destruct because the AI of a robot does not consider nutrition as a survival need nor will it count the deaths of the people forced to starve under its command! The meek will then inherit the earth!

First off: Ignore the two who've posted since you.
As for quantum teleportation, here are some links that make for an interesting read about the subject:
Quantum Teleportation at IBM
Spooky Action and Beyond
Physicists Succeed In Transferring Information Between Matter And Light
Quantum telecloning: Captain Kirk's clone and the eavesdropper
I hope you enjoy them
