I suffer from chronic depression over the sad truth I'd never become a Na'vi. Can someone please tell me there is hope for the future of being reincarnated into such a body? I have started to consider suicide.

- Unobtainium was a room temperature superconductor

We just have to wait for the engineering to catch up with the theory. It has happened many times in history, when someone proposed something, everyone laughed, and in 20 or 30 years they had the technology to make it real.

Room temperature superconductors are unlikely, oh no, what a gigantic error in the movie.

Humanity being descendants of Pak Protectors is also unlikely, but it's still in Known Space.

Time travel is 99.9999% unlikely, but it's still in The End of Eternity.

That's why it's called Science-FICTION.

Haters gonna hate, but whatever.
The state of technological progress is starting to seriously be hampered by capitalism and insufficient funds to bring out experiments. Anywhere from graphene not being in widespread use by now as at least server processors, to NASA's budget being fucked with.
I propose the change to a resource-based economy with robots doing most if not all work for humans, while the education, infrastructure and environmental impacts get changed for the better so humans can experience true post-scarcity.
This means if anybody wants to research ANYTHING, they can just order it made for them. Upload the blueprints, and it gets made for you and delivered.
There is no reason why every single person on this planet cannot live like an utter billionare while still having a very nice equilibrium with the environment. You stop asking for solutions by the cheapest/effectiveness ratio, but the absolute best.
That means genetic research and nanobots and mind uploading comes soon because overall stress in everything drops, average intelligence skyrockets, and so forth.
