Welcome to the 21st century when we were supposed to have thousands of people living on orbit. Welcome to the 21st century when we were supposed to have regular missions to asteroids, Moon and Mars... and we can't even keep a permanent presence on artificial island 300kms above our heads...
The future ain't what it used to be.
