About the possible future of mankind known. The future of humanity
The future of mankind is an issue that requires a serious approach involving many experts. Because it is interesting and extremely important. Scientific American interviewed prominent figures in the field of science and technology, whom we also often write about and refer to, to find out from them: what will be the future of mankind.
1) Does humanity have a future beyond Earth?
“I think it is a dangerous delusion to seek mass emigration from Earth. Nowhere in the solar system is anywhere near as comfortable as the top of Everest or the South Pole. We need to deal with the world's problems here. However, I think that in the next century there will be groups of privately funded adventurers who will populate Mars, and then possibly other places in the solar system. We certainly must wish these pioneers good luck in using all the methods of cyber- and biotechnological adaptation to an alien environment. In a few centuries, they will turn into a new species: the post-human era will begin. Journey beyond solar system will become the lot of posthumanity - organic or not"
- Martin Rees, English cosmologist and astrophysicist.
2) When and where do you think we will find extraterrestrial life?
“If Mars is teeming with microbial life, I suspect we will find it within 20 years – if it is similar enough to our life forms. If an alien life form is strikingly different from what we have here on Earth, it will be difficult to detect. It's also possible that any microbes left on Mars are rare and in places that a robotic lander would have a hard time finding. Jupiter's moon Europa and Saturn's moon Titan seem to be more suitable places. And Titan is perhaps the most interesting place in the solar system to search for life. It is rich in organic molecules, but is very cold and has no liquid water; if life on Titan exists, it will be very different from life on Earth.”
- Carol Cleland, professor of philosophy and co-investigator at the Center for Astrobiology at Colorado State University Boulder.
3) Will we ever understand the nature of consciousness?
“Some philosophers, mystics and other talkers foam at the mouth argue about the impossibility of ever comprehending the true nature of consciousness. However, there are few grounds for such defeatist claims, but there is every reason to believe that one day, relatively soon, science will come to a naturalized, quantitative and predictive understanding of consciousness and its place in the Universe.
- Kristof Koch, President and CSO of the Allen Institute for Brain Sciences.
4) Will the world ever get adequate medical care?
“The global community has come a long way towards health equity over the past 25 years, but these advances have not reached the corners of the world most remote from civilization. Deep in the rainforest, where people are cut off from transportation and cell phone networks, mortality is very high, access to medical services is limited, and the quality of healthcare is abysmal. The World Health Organization estimates that one billion people live their lives without ever seeing a health worker due to remoteness. Health workers who are recruited directly from communities could close this gap. They could even fight epidemics like Ebola and maintain access to basic medical care when hospitals are forced to close their doors. My organization, Last Mile Health, today has more than 300 healthcare workers in 300 settlements throughout Liberia. But we cannot do this work alone. If the global community is serious about ensuring access to health care for all, it must invest in medical workers who can reach the most remote places.”
- Raj Punjabi, co-founder and CEO of Last Mile Health and instructor at Harvard Medical School.
5) Understanding the brain: will it change criminal law?
“In all likelihood, the brain is a causal machine in the sense that it moves from one state to another depending on the previous conditions. The consequences of this for criminal law are absolutely zero. First, all mammals and birds have prerequisites for self-control, which are modified during reinforcement learning (the reward for making the right choice), especially in a social context. Secondly, criminal law is aimed at the security and welfare of the population. Even if we could identify conditions unique to serial child abusers, for example, they would simply be banned from moving freely because they are prone to recidivism. If we were to conclude, for example, that a certain Boston priest, John Jogen, who attempted to seduce some 130 children, “is not guilty of having brains, so let him go home,” the result would be lynching, no doubt. When rough justice takes its place in a criminal justice system rooted in years of impartial laws, things get ugly very quickly.”
- Patricia Churchland, Professor of Philosophy and Neuroscience at the University of California, San Diego.
6) What is the chance that Homo sapiens will survive the next 500 years?
“I think the chances of our survival are very high. Even the biggest threats - nuclear war or an ecological catastrophe that could result from climate change - are not catastrophic in the sense that they will wipe us off the face of the Earth completely. And this bogey of ours, in which the electronic offspring will grow up and decide that they can live without us, you can get rid of it simply by turning it off.
- Carlton Davis, Distinguished Professor of Physics and Astronomy at the University of New Mexico.
7) How close are we to preventing a nuclear catastrophe?
“Since 9/11, the United States has given significant policy attention to reducing the risk of nuclear terrorism by increasing the security of highly enriched uranium and plutonium and removing them from wherever possible. An act of nuclear terrorism could kill 100,000 people. However, thirty years after cold war where a greater danger lies in a nuclear catastrophe involving thousands of nuclear explosions and from several tens to hundreds of millions of deaths due to a possible nuclear confrontation between the United States and Russia.
Remembering Pearl Harbor, the United States maintained its nuclear forces in case of a possible first strike, which Soviet Union could try to destroy all available US forces. We do not expect such an attack today, but each side still maintains about 1,000 intercontinental nuclear warheads on full alert. Because the flight time ballistic missile is only 15-30 minutes, decisions that could lead to hundreds of millions of deaths must be made within minutes. Possibility of random nuclear war or even hackers who will provoke the launch remains.
The Cold War is over, but the Doomsday Machine, which was born out of the confrontation between the US and the USSR, is still with us - and its trigger is cocked.
- Frank von Hippel, Professor Emeritus of the School of State and international relations them. Woodrow Wilson at Princeton University, co-founder of the Princeton Science and Global Security Program.
8) Will sex become obsolete?
“No, but having sex to conceive children is likely to become much less common. In 20-40 years, we will be able to extract eggs and sperm from stem cells, perhaps from the skin cells of our parents. This will allow easy pre-implantation genetic diagnosis. a large number embryos - or easy genome modification for those who want to edit embryos rather than choose"
- Henry Greely, director of the Center for Law and Biosciences at Stanford University.
9) Will we one day be able to replace all the tissues of the human body through the process of engineering?
“In 1995, Joseph Vacanti and I wrote for this magazine about a breakthrough in the development of an artificial pancreas, about plastic-based tissues, such as faux leather and electronics that could allow blind people to see. All this has come, in the form of real products or is undergoing clinical trials. Over the next few centuries, it's entirely possible that every fabric could be replaced in a similar way. Creating or regenerating tissues like those in the brain, which are extremely complex and poorly understood, would require huge amount research. However, there is hope that research in this area will proceed quickly enough and help people with brain diseases like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease quickly enough.
- Robert Langer, Professor at the David Koch Institute at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
10) Can we avoid the "sixth extinction"?
“It can be slowed down and then stopped if urgent action is taken. The biggest cause of species extinction is habitat loss. That is why I emphasize that it is necessary to collect a global reserve (reserve), occupying half the land and half the sea, if necessary. In addition to this initiative (and developing the science of species ecosystems to a level better than the current one), the 10 million or so remaining species need to be discovered and characterized; to date, we have found and named only 2 million. In general, it is necessary to expand ecology, to include in it what the living world should be, and this, in my opinion, will be the largest initiative in science until the end of the century.
- Edward Wilson, professor emeritus at Harvard University.
11) Is it possible to feed on the planet without destroying it?
"Yes. Here's what to do: reduce crop waste, household waste and meat consumption; integrate quality grain technologies and management practices; educate consumers about the challenges faced by farmers in developed and developing countries; increase public funding for agricultural research and development and focus on promoting the socio-economic and environmental aspects of agriculture that characterize its sustainable development”
- Pamela Ronald, Professor Emeritus of the Genomic Center and Division of Plant Pathology at the University of California, Davis.
12) Will we colonize space?
“It depends on the definition of ‘colonization’. If we mean the landing of robots, then this has already been done. If sending microbes from Earth to live and grow, then no, unfortunately, we have not yet achieved this - except perhaps inside the Curiosity rover, where there is a heat source that has not been fully warmed up, like the Viking.
If we mean sending people anywhere for a long period of time, without reproducing, this will happen in the next 50 years or so. There may even be a certain level of reproduction, after all, primates remain primates. But if the idea is to build a self-sufficient environment in which people can exist with the most modest help from Earth - colonies like the "European" colonies that were built outside of Europe - then this will happen far in the future, if at all. At present, we don't quite understand how to create a closed ecosystem that will be protected from disturbances caused by an influx of organisms or non-biological events (for example, Biosphere-2), and I suspect that the problem of a closed ecosystem will be much more complicated than one thinks the vast majority of supporters of space colonization. A wide range of problems, such as air treatment, have to be solved. We haven't even colonized the Earth's underwater space yet. And colonizing space, in which there is no atmosphere at all, is even more difficult.
- Katarina Conley, Planetary Defense Specialist at NASA.
13) Will we find a second Earth?
“I bet yes. We have already found out that planets around other stars are much more common and diverse than scientists imagined just a couple of decades ago. And we also found out that the key ingredient for life on this planet - water - is common in space. I would say that nature, rather, has collected a wide range of planets, including the Earth, and we just have to look for them.
- Aki Roberge, astrophysicist who studies exoplanets at NASA's Goddard Space Center.
14) Will we find a cure for Alzheimer's disease?
“I'm not sure it will be a cure per se, but I really hope that in the next ten years there will be a successful treatment that modifies Alzheimer's disease. We have already begun preliminary trials for the prevention of the disease even before a person shows symptoms of the disease. And we don't need to treat Alzheimer's - we just need to delay dementia by 5-10 years. Estimates show that delaying the dreaded and costly stage of dementia by five years would cut the cost of patient care by 50%. In addition, it follows that many elderly people will be able to die dancing ballet, and not in a nursing home.
- Reisa Sperling, Professor of Neurology at Harvard Medical School.
15) Will we find out what dark matter is?
“Whether we can determine what dark matter is depends on what it turns out to be. Some forms of dark matter can be detected due to minute interactions with ordinary matter, but otherwise they will be elusive. Others can be detected by their effect on structures like galaxies. I hope we can learn more through experimentation and observation. But I can't guarantee"
— Lisa Randall, theoretical physicist and cosmologist at Harvard University.
16) Will we be able to control intractable brain diseases like schizophrenia or autism?
“Disorders like autism and schizophrenia remain elusive because neuroscience has not found a structural problem that can be corrected. Some believe that this is because the future answers lie solely in biochemistry, and not in neural circuits. Others argue that neuroscientists should start thinking in terms of the overall architecture of the brain, rather than specific neural failures. However, when it comes to the future, I am reminded of the remark of Nobel laureate Charles Townes that the beauty of a new idea is that you don't know about it.
- Michael Gazzaniga, director of the SAGE Center for the Study of the Mind at the University of California, Santa Barbara.
17) Will technology eliminate the need for testing medicines on animals?
“If human organs-on-a-chips prove to be reliable and consistently rediscover the complex physiology of human organs and disease phenotypes in unrelated laboratories around the world, as early proof-of-concept studies showed, then we will see how they gradually replace the animal model. This will eventually lead to a significant reduction in animal testing. Importantly, these devices will also open up new approaches to drug development that are not possible with today's animal models, such as personalized medicine and the development of treatments for specific genetic subpopulations using chips that target cells from specific patients."
— Donald Ingber, founding director of the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University.
18) Will there be equality between men and women in science?
“Equality between men and women can be achieved, but we cannot just sit back and wait for it to happen. We need to "fix the numbers" by getting more women into science and technology. We need to fix institutions, rethink career and family relationships, show new leadership opportunities. More importantly, we need to improve people's attitudes by harnessing the creative power of gender analysis for discovery and innovation."
- Londa Schiebinger, professor of science history at Stanford University.
19) Do you think we will one day be able to predict natural disasters like earthquakes in hours or days?
“Some natural disasters are easier to predict than others. Hurricanes appear within a few days, volcanoes often prepare for an eruption for several hours or days, tornadoes come in a few minutes. Earthquakes are perhaps the most difficult. What we know about the physics of earthquakes means that we cannot predict them in advance. We can only predict ground damage immediately before an earthquake, thus providing a few seconds or minutes of alarm. To leave the city, this time is not enough, but to get to a safe place - it is enough.
- Richard Allen, director of the Berkeley Seismological Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley.
20) Will wearable technology determine our emotions?
“Emotions include biochemical and electrical signals that reach every organ in our bodies – allowing, for example, stress to affect our physical and mental health. Wearable technology will allow us to quantify patterns in these signals over long periods of time. In the next ten years, wearable technology will become the weather forecaster of our own health: it will predict your condition next week with 80 percent accuracy based on your recent actions. But unlike the weather, smart wearable technology will also be able to identify patterns that we can use to reduce unwanted “storms”: get enough sleep to reduce stress levels by 60% for the next four days, for example. In the next 20 years, wearable devices and the analyzes obtained with them can also significantly reduce psychiatric and neurological disorders.”
- Rosalind Picard, Founder and Director of the Affective Computing Research Group at MIT's Media Lab.
Want to know what events will be happening in human history, on Earth and in the Universe in 10, 100, 100, 1000, 100,000 years? Tell me that no one is allowed to know this? Then open this book and you will see that non-traditional futurology has long destroyed all imaginable boundaries of time and space and indicates specific dates for the accomplishment of even unimaginable events in the usual sense. So, forward to the future!
Time can be likened to a mighty tree, where the roots hidden in the ground are the past, the well-visible and tangible trunk is the present, and the lush, branching crown with thousands of shoots is the future. The author gave such an analogy in order to make it clear to the reader that from the point of view of the present, the future is an infinite set of vectors of possible events and probabilities. The future is not clearly defined.
Naturally, a reasonable question arises: if the future is some incomprehensible fuzzy matter, then is it worth studying it at all? Who needs the numerous and contradictory predictions of the prophets and futurologists, if the latter write and talk about what is not, and, perhaps, never will be?
This question can be answered in two ways. First, no one forces a person to deal with the future. All the great prophets were seers, and the future broke through into their consciousness, like a whisper of intuition, like the voice of an unknown world that demanded that it - this voice - be heard and understood by other people. Secondly, studying the future, humanity does not show idle curiosity, but tries to answer the triad of burning questions: who are we, where are we from and where are we going. Without knowledge of the future, we will never understand ourselves either on an individual, collective or global level.
The author for several years collected and summarized all the information available to him about prophecies, predictions and forecasts and came to the conclusion that the “only correct and only true” model of the future is sheer absurdity. But this does not mean that the entire vast array of information about upcoming events is generally devoid of any logic. The idea is already visible in it today that without resorting to spiritual values and without trying to change with their help the world humanity is inevitably doomed to destruction. The question is only in specific terms. And, nevertheless, despite this disturbing circumstance, the Lord or the Higher Powers - call it what you like, give us the right of free choice. We ourselves must decide what kind of future suits us, and what ways we will move towards it. We must decide all together and each separately. Then we will really be the masters of our destiny, and we will really realize the desire for freedom that was originally inherent in us.
One should not try to paint some logically flawless and consistent picture of the future based on the materials of this book. Maybe, I repeat, but this is fundamentally impossible, since it contradicts the nature of time itself. The author will consider his task completed if, having read and analyzed all the information presented about the future, the reader makes his free choice in favor of those strategies and scenarios that correspond to his nature, and tries to find his place in their implementation. After all, we create our own future and the future of mankind. Together and each separately.
On the nature of time and the study of the future.
In our time, in order to explore the future, it is not at all necessary to be a prophet, such as the well-known Michel Nostradamus and Edgar Cayce were at one time. It is also not necessary for this to have any supernatural, paranormal abilities from birth. The future, by virtue of its nature, itself reveals its secrets to people when it comes certain period historical development. At the time when the biblical prophets and Michel Nostradamus lived, it was enough for people to know that the future exists against their will and that it is possible and must be predicted. That's why this future looked like in the first known to people prophecies, in the form of a random collection of fantastic, highly abstract, and filled with incomprehensible symbols, pictures. These paintings were fragmentary and did not give an idea of the general trends in the development of human civilization. Take, for example, the well-known "Revelation of John the Theologian". How much information will you find in it about the year and in which countries the described apocalyptic events will take place?
The same can be said about the "Centuries" by Michel Nostradamus. Depending on the tastes of the interpreter, they can be “imposed” on any country and on any period in the history of this country. Therefore, now much is being written not so much about the prophecies of Nostradamus, but about the arbitrary interpretation of these prophecies by various commentators, such as, say, Manfred Dimde (France) or Alla Denikina (Russia). And almost all researchers of the legacy of the great French seer, despite their outstanding creative abilities, "fixate" on the idea that for the period after 3797 AD. it is impossible to predict the future, because the "great terrible" himself said so. But did Nostradamus write about this in at least one of his works? Another thing is that the prophet himself, by virtue of his abilities, was able to explore the future precisely up to this date, calculated by him on the basis of the texts of the Bible.
We live in completely different times. Today, such a science as futurology is developing. In the arsenal of techniques and methods of a modern researcher of the future, which any scientist “from common sense” can become, one can find various (depending on the point of “anchor” of events) calculations made on the basis of the theory of geosocial cycles, and forecasting emerging trends in the development of society, and extrapolation in time, and the use of the unique results of "traveling into the future", received recently in the USA during sessions of progressive hypnosis by Chet B. Snow and Bruce Goldberg. Such mental journeys have been made by tens of thousands of people. This means that already in our time, tens of thousands of people in an altered state of consciousness contemplated the future in the time interval from 2100 to 2500! And now the sequence of applying all the listed techniques and methods for making forecasts is the personal "know-how" of every researcher of the future. And some of these “know-how”, whatever numerous fans of Michel Nostradamus say, make it possible to predict events on specific dates up to the beginning of the 5th millennium of our era. Time has such a nature that one can definitely speak only about what has already happened. For example, everyone knows that Vladimir the Great baptized Holy Russia in 988 AD, and the Great Patriotic War began on June 22, 1941. But as for the future, all self-respecting futurologists know that it has a uniquely probabilistic character. That is, several vectors of events are directed from today into it, this is the future. Suppose tonight at 19.00 you plan to go to work tomorrow morning at 8.00, as always, but at 22.00 your boss may call you and offer to go on an urgent business trip on his behalf. At the same time, as another option, you may be contacted by a distant relative and asked to meet him in the morning at the station. Or, God forbid, your temperature will suddenly rise at this time, and you will fall ill. “22 hours today” is that “bifurcation point”, or “break in time”, when it is impossible to say anything unambiguous about tomorrow. Therefore, it is fundamentally impossible to make predictions with 100% accuracy for specific dates or years due to the nature of time itself. At the same time, if you do not “arrange” events according to specific dates, then foresight loses any meaning at all and becomes a fantastic collection of terrible or beautiful tales. First of all, because in this case, its "soul" is taken out of the future - the logic of events. And most importantly, a person becomes indifferent to such a prediction, because it does not induce him to any action.
The thing is that a forecast is not made for the sake of the forecast itself. He must force a person to act and come to a probable “breaking point in time” mentally prepared. And the predicted event will come this year or next, is it really so important? And yet, a forecast or prophecy without a date, as it was before, in the era of youth and childhood of mankind, is unacceptable today. Otherwise, the one who predicts avoids responsibility, and the one who listens to the predictor avoids activities. Both criminally play with time. In general, the forecasts of the prophets and futurologists should be heeded. After all, it was not from scratch that the ancient Romans put together a saying: “When one oracle said something, then you can not listen to him. When the second one says the same, he should listen. When the third one just starts talking about it, save your life, because everything predicted is already happening.
About the end of the world.
Rumors about the coming lightning-fast apocalypse, of course, did not arise from scratch. ancient people The Maya considered time to be cycles of 5125 years each. The beginning of the last such cycle falls on August 13, 3113 AD, and the end - respectively on December 23, 2012. In my opinion, some researchers have irresponsibly given the advantage of such rhythmicity of time in comparison with other cycles. The same Maya had another cycle, which began in 3154 BC. and had a duration of 8000 years. Therefore, if we count the time according to this cycle, then the "end of the world" falls on 4846 AD. There is, for example, also a cycle lasting 20096 years, after which a fundamental change of a person occurs with such accompanying phenomena as natural disasters and other troubles. This cycle began in 17548 BC and will end in 2548 AD. But the outstanding Ukrainian scientist, Dr. historical sciences Nikolai Chmykhov proved the existence of a 9576-year cycle, which, according to his calculations, should end in 2015. However, the author of the theory considered this last year of the cycle not the “end of the world”, but the beginning of the transition of mankind to a new state, when it becomes more spiritual and more receptive to cosmic energies.
Consequently, the Mayan cycle is just one of many cycles known to modern researchers, each of which has its own specific time duration and “starting point”. One of the most recognized today by most modern researchers in the history of cycles is the cycle of precession of the earth's axis, which is equal to 25920 years. Its beginning falls on the World Flood, which shook the planet in 10800 BC, and the end - in 15120 AD. Therefore, as scientists prove, we are still very, very far away from the present to the “end of the world”. So far, that until that time humanity will quietly colonize the asteroid belt, Mars, Venus, the Moon, satellites of the giant planets, settle on many planets in our Galaxy and begin to explore other dimensions of space-time through "black holes". The question is: in what corner of the Universe, which will exist according to the calculations of astrophysicists, for at least another 22 billion years, should we expect the “end of the world”?
In The Secret Doctrine, the founder of modern occult science, Helena Blavatsky, wrote about the so-called "racial cycles" of 1,560,000 years, which were known to the ancient Hindus. According to the concept of such cycles, according to the writer, in 560 thousand years we will turn into a “radiant humanity” - an organized community of spherical intelligent beings from hot plasma that will live on land, underground and under water, as well as in outer space. And after 2 million 120 thousand years, the earthly civilization will be dispersed throughout the Universe in the form of giant spheres of cold plasma created by the intellect and spirit of billions of intelligent beings. These cosmic giant spheres will feed on the energy of the bowels of distant planets and send their individual “spirit grains” (the consciousness of intelligent beings that once lived on Earth, and therefore our consciousness with you) to explore parallel worlds and other dimensions of space-time . That's when the "end of the world" will happen in the full sense of the word, when humanity is transformed into something that is difficult for us to even imagine today.
But the concept of etherodynamic cycles of the modern Russian researcher Alexander Pleshanov generally admits that in the period from 2041 to 2468, every 92 years, the Earth will be “cleansed” by large-scale floods, earthquakes, droughts, and epidemics. Therefore, the people of the planet Earth and in 2012, and in 3012 and 4012 can sleep peacefully. There will be no "end of the world". The maximum that awaits us in 2012 is the serious consequences of global warming in the form of typhoons, floods and tropical downpours in America, South and West Asia. Partial flooding of the territory of the sea coast of Northern Europe is possible. And also the accelerated melting of glaciers in the Arctic and Antarctic.
Scenario of the future development of human civilization.
According to the author's research, the development of mankind in the next 150 years will be largely determined by the aggravation of the geocritical situation on the planet in 2040-2058. This period will become times of large-scale natural disasters in the form of earthquakes, hurricanes, tsunamis, typhoons and droughts. The processes of global warming will provoke the accelerated melting of the ice sheet of Antarctica so much that many territories of Northern Eurasia and the ocean coast of both Americas will be under water. In 2090, the climate of Antarctica will resemble the climate of modern Sweden or Norway. The mainland will gradually begin to be populated by refugees from Africa, America and Asia. The demographic pressure of the East on the West will gradually subside. This process will continue until 2150. The world will suffer from great social upheavals that will sweep through many developed countries in a mighty wave. The countries of Africa, South America, Southeast Asia expect epidemics of new viral infections, an increase in mortality. But it is these events that will become the impetus for accelerating the technological development of society, the discovery of new sources of cheap energy.
Starting from 2065, industrial complexes will be built in near space for the production and wireless transmission to Earth of electricity obtained from solar radiation. The industrial development of the Moon will begin in order to extract helium-3 from its bowels - fuel for safe and compact thermonuclear stations, with which every dwelling will be equipped at the end of this century.
The years 2160-2255 will be the years of the discovery of new - mental - technologies for the development of the Universe by mankind. A computer-telepathic network "Telenet" will be created. Without any bulky special devices, only with the help of special chips implanted under the skin, a person will be able to communicate with any inhabitant of the planet, the Moon and near-Earth industrial orbital complexes, as well as connect to any information resource humanity. Through the methods of progressive or regressive hypnosis, everyone will be given the opportunity to make a trip to their past, or future life(scientific confirmation of immortality human soul will be received already in 2010) and in this way get rid of the fear of death forever.
2250 - 2350 years will be a period of active colonization of the Moon, Venus and Mars, satellites of the giant planets, as well as the industrial development of the asteroid belt. The first interstellar flights will begin. Until 2445, humanity will learn to use the energy of the earth's core. This energy will then be transformed by the inhabitants of numerous spiritual settlements-communities into crystalline energy - structures of multidimensional space-time, according to which the noospheres of the planets of the Solar System and the Galaxy being mastered will be built. The Earth's lithosphere will become the environment for the location of high-tech metropolitan cities, an extensive network of underground communications, industrial complexes and geopower stations. At the same time, the problem of the immortality of the human body will be practically solved by creating virtual duplicates of the human consciousness and surrounding the natural human body with protective self-regulating energy fields. Until 2550, the construction of the infrastructure of the underwater civilization will be completed: big cities under transparent domes, numerous factories and aqua farms. A new species of man will appear - Homo acvarius (man of the sea), breeds of intelligent animals will be artificially bred. It is possible that the “immersion” of human civilization into the bowels of the planet and the ocean will be caused by a short-term cooling of the Sun in 2318-2328, when the existence of a person on the surface of the planet will become not very comfortable as a result of high temperatures and intense evaporation of the atmosphere.
In the period from 2555 to 15120, humanity will focus its main efforts on the colonization of all the planets of the Galaxy suitable for the development of life. Noospheres will be created around these planets - multi-layer memory banks of people and intelligent animals. They will become the basis for subsequent technological development. celestial bodies: play on them natural conditions similar to those on earth. “The distant paths of distant planets” will be resurrected to life in a physical body by earthlings who once died (including you and me). At the same time, a person will begin to wander through other dimensions of space-time and parallel worlds, study them and adapt them to your creative and cognitive needs. Travel to the past and future will become commonplace. Their possibility will be provided by experiments with gravity and "black holes". From the past, complete information will be obtained about all the people who once lived on Earth. This will allow them to fully reproduce their consciousness and place it in new, immortal bodies, protected and strengthened by a transparent cocoon of subtle energies.
Today one can only guess about what the subsequent fate of mankind could be. But it is quite possible that everything will be as predicted by Helena Blavatsky, as we have already discussed above.

Calendar of the future based on the transcripts of quatrains by Michel Nostradamus.
Michel Nostradamus (1503 -1566) - the great French astrologer, healer and prophet. He studied at the universities of Avignon and Montpellier. Bachelor of Medicine. He made a great contribution to the development of medical methods to combat the plague. In 1547 he decided to devote his life to astrology and predictions of the future. In 1555, the first collection of Nostradamus' prophecies was published in Lyon. Over the next two years, he completed the complete edition of his Prophecies. The book was divided into 10 chapters (centuries), each of which consisted of 100 quatrains (quatrains).

In 100 years, humanity will change beyond recognition: people will live much longer, will be able to transmit emotions and thoughts via the Internet, communicate without knowing a foreign language, and fly to Mars. American futurist Michio Kaku stated this in his report at SPIEF-2018.
According to him, our near future is not an ordinary reality, but a cyber reality. "In a few years, you'll be able to blink your eye to go online, or unroll your mobile phone like a scroll to look up information and print something you need, like shoes to fit your feet," says Michio Kaku. Humanity will have memory chips. At the touch of a button, you can learn math instead of taking a course. The whole essence and system of education will change.
We will be able to send over the Internet not only digital data, but also memories and emotions. "Thanks to new technologies, we will be able to communicate with other people almost at the level of thoughts. In 500 years there will be time machines, teleportation - everything we read about in science fiction novels. The future is the digitization of the human brain and digital immortality. It will be possible to digitize everything that know about a person, and make a digital copy of it. There are already commercial beginnings of this technology. And there is also a demand for it: someone already wants to live forever in digital, "says the Japanese futurologist.
More and more mechanical work will be taken over by robots. But they cannot completely replace human labor.
"A person will be left with a job that requires common sense, logic, experience, communication and creativity. Intellectual capital will form the basis of the economy of the future," Michio Kaku is sure.
It will be possible to focus, for example, on the conquest of space. "In 2023, astronauts should land on the moon. Three ships are already ready to complete this mission, including the ship and. We will set foot on Mars after 2030. And then we will go further," Michio Kaku is sure.
Immortal life
Ten years ago, we did not know what aging is, what its nature is. Cells were dying - and we did not understand why this was happening. “Now we know that this is also due to the accumulation of genetic errors. We can correct them and live forever,” Michio Kaku is sure.
According to him, very soon computers built into the human body will heal people and prolong their lives. "They will analyze blood flows, determine the state of the body and carry out treatment, including micro-operations. Nanobugs are already being used - small robots that can find one out of a billion cancer cells in the blood. This technology is called liquid biopsy. And it will be commercial already in this year. And over time, the word "tumor" will simply disappear from our language, "said Michio Kaku.
Growing organs will become commonplace. “We can already grow and replace bones, skin and cartilage, noses and ears, blood vessels, bladders and tracheas. The next step is the liver and individual elements of the kidneys,” says the futurist.
live longer
At the last meeting, the head repeated the previously expressed, as if in passing, idea of extending the official period of childhood in Russia to 30 years.
According to this theory, childhood in people will soon last up to 30 years, mature age- at least up to 70-80 years, and then the activity will gradually decrease. And 100th anniversaries will not be surprising.
By the way, according to the results of last year, the average life expectancy of Russians was 72.5 years (for women - 77.2 years, and for men - 66.8 years).
“We are faced with the task of increasing the total life expectancy of fellow citizens by 2030 to 80 years and more. We are solving it: over the past 2 years, life expectancy in Russia has increased by 2 years, including 0.8 years in 2017 (and for men - for 1 year)," said Veronika Skvortsova at one of the SPIEF-2018 events. For comparison, over the past 30 years, it has been possible to increase life expectancy by only 1.5 years.
True, there already today citizens live on average longer than 80 years. According to the minister, the state is actively working on a program to increase the average life expectancy of citizens, which should be on the table of the President of the Russian Federation in October this year.
According to preliminary forecasts, in order to achieve the set results, provided that GDP grows by 4% per year and the level of alcoholism in the country decreases to the European level (by 40% of the current indicator), it will be necessary to add to healthcare from federal budget 10% per year, that is, 300 billion rubles.
These funds will be used to develop a system of affordable and high-quality medicine, the development of a prevention system, public health programs (this includes the fight against bad habits, healthy nutrition, movement and positive attitude), as well as the introduction of modern medical technologies.
"Soon, molecular genetics will allow from the very birth of a person to predict the weaknesses of his body and cure dangerous diseases in the early stages," the minister said.
She expressed confidence that the scale of values of the state would change over time. "A person will become higher than the economy, and the life expectancy and health of citizens will be the main feature of a developed country," she concluded.

Famous English theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking has died. He was 76 years old. Shortly before his death, he made another gloomy prediction. The scientist is confident that our planet will soon run the risk of repeating the fate of Venus and may turn into a real hell for humans. The physicist talked about this in the second episode of his video project "Favorite Places" (Stephen Hawking's Favorite Places).
Hawking believed that if people do not reduce greenhouse gas emissions, then humanity will die out, and the planet will become a lifeless desert. If we keep in mind that the age of the Earth is 4.5 billion years, then after some 200-500 years a person will have to look for a new "home", the physicist predicted.
“The next time you meet a climate change denier, send him to Venus. I will pay for the fare, ”the scientist noted.
MIR 24 decided to recall what other gloomy predictions about the future of mankind were made by the world famous theoretical physicist.
In early November, speaking at the Tencent WE summit, which was held in the Chinese capital, Hawking told when, in his opinion, humanity will cease to exist. People will die already, he is sure.
“Humanity is threatened by overpopulation. People must boldly move into hitherto unknown worlds and explore new planets,” Hawking said.
Other possible reason the death of mankind - the gradual transformation of the Earth into a fireball due to the immoderate consumption of energy.
Nevertheless, according to the Briton, there is a way out. Hawking called for investing in Breakthroug Starshot. It's a project that wants to build a tiny solar sail probe that can travel at 1/5 the speed of light and reach the Earth-like planet of Alpha Centauri in 20 years.
Another very real threat to humans, according to Hawking, is the rapid development of artificial intelligence can lead to the complete displacement of people.
“I'm afraid artificial intelligence can completely replace people. If now people develop computer viruses, then in the future someone will be able to create artificial intelligence that can improve and reproduce itself. It will become a new form of life that will surpass man,” said the scientist .
Even if the robots do not set out to get rid of people, humanity risks coming to self-destruction, Hawking emphasized.
“We have passed the point of no return. The earth is becoming too small for us, the population is growing at an alarming rate, and we are in danger of destroying ourselves, ”the scientist warned.
In addition to global warming and artificial intelligence, man is threatened. In this regard, the British scientist warned earthlings against the desire to seek meetings with aliens - this can be dangerous for humanity. Hawking is convinced that earthlings should not respond to possible signals that will come from other planets. The specialist gave an example of the discovery of America. He recalled that the fate of the indigenous inhabitants of the mainland was very sad. According to him, it is quite possible that the meeting of people and aliens will end this way.
Hawking believed that aliens might view Earth as a source of resources. That is why their arrival on our planet threatens the death of all mankind.
In addition, the British researcher expressed the opinion that in the coming years, humanity will face the problem of lack of resources. Therefore, he strongly advised the authorities to think about the prospect of resettling people on other planets. According to Hawking, Mars and the Moon can be considered as objects for colonization, and in the future, exoplanets.
“Although the probability of a catastrophe on planet Earth this year may be quite low, it adds up over time and becomes almost one hundred percent in the next 1000 or 10,000 years. By this time, we must move to other stars, so a catastrophe on Earth will not mean the end of the human race, ”said the physicist.
With similar words, he spoke at the beginning of last year at the Starmus science festival in Trondheim, Norway. In his opinion, if nothing changes, by the middle of the 21st century, our civilization will begin to die out due to overpopulation and climate change. Do not exclude the possibility of a collision with an asteroid.
“I am sure that people need to leave the Earth. This planet is becoming too small for us, our physical resources are being depleted at an alarming rate, ”the researcher quotes The Telegraph.
The future has two features: 1) it cannot be predicted; 2) we are constantly trying to do it. The future should interest us even more than the past. After all, the past has already passed, and we have yet to live in the future. Even though long-term predictions never come true, talking and thinking about the future is very important: through our actions and conversations, we determine what tomorrow's world will look like.
We have collected six of the most informative video lectures about what the future holds for us, what challenges we have to solve, and about the changes that are already happening to the world today.
Ekaterina Shulman. The future of the family, private property and the state
Russian political scientist Ekaterina Shulman talks about how the social conditions of our life are already changing. New models of family and relationships, new forms of work and leisure, new formats of political structure, new versions of attitudes towards the world - all this arises and gradually becomes our daily reality. From historical changes no one will be able to hide - the question is what place our society will occupy in the post-post-industrial era and how we will accept these changes.
Stanislav Drobyshevsky. The biological future of man
Anthropologist and famous lecturer Stanislav Drobyshevsky talks about how our body will change in the future. He considers several possible scenarios: "warm", when everyone will live in a climate close to African; "cold", if instead of global warming there will be a cooling; "wild", in which civilization will destroy itself; and “mint pink”, in which humanity will not only preserve civilization, but also solve the most important global issues that face it.
Although the paths of evolution are inscrutable, we ourselves direct its movement along a certain channel. Genetic engineering and colonization of other planets is another possible route.
Lawrence Krauss, Craig Venter, Richard Dawkins and others. Humanity and the future
Several leading scientists and intellectuals of our time talk about the challenges humanity is facing today and how they are to be solved. It will be about medicine, synthetic biology, genome editing, artificial intelligence and other global tasks. This is not a conversation about some distant hypothetical future, but about what is already happening in scientific laboratories and business corporations.
Nick Bostrom. What will happen when our computers become smarter than us
Philosopher and specialist artificial intelligence Nick Bostrom points to one of the main tasks facing humanity today - the task of building a safe artificial superintelligence. It is on the correct solution of this problem that our fate will depend. Superintelligence will be beyond anything we can imagine today - it will be able to remake the entire planet and colonize space. We will not be able to "turn off" superintelligence when it appears. All we can do is make sure that his goals are aligned with ours.
A similar approach to the problem is lectures Sam Harris.
Bill Gates. How the world will change by 2030
Conversation with the founder Microsoft and the head of the largest philanthropic foundation on what our technologies and societies will be like by 2030. Will we be able to cope with poverty and other social problems? Gates believes that by this time Africa will have switched to self-sufficiency and there will be almost no poor countries left in the world. His forecast in other areas is less optimistic: for example, bioterrorism in the coming years could destroy a significant part of humanity, and many people will be forced out of the labor market.
