Children of the Future

Sometimes we might wonder about future children?

How will they look? What hobbies shall these pupils of the far futurity enjoy? Where will they live, in floating mega metropolis, an orbital platform, or perhaps another planet?

For what we have seen, the future will require skills that we do not now have. Skills such as stage coach driver and truck driver are very different. As technology advances many current jobs will become outmoded and obsolete. A conductor of a steam locomotive cannot step aboard a 747 jumbo jet and land it safely.

We will see dramatic advances in technology as we go forward. I predict that the children of the future will live in a world far different from our own.
