Freedom Ship


The freedom ship is called the "Floating City" and you can already guess why. Yea.... the ship is so big that can be used as a city and in the future maybe people will be able to live in it. The ship has schools, mals, aiport, hospitals, etc. . It has everything that a normal city would have. The ship will be used as homes because someday in the future scientists think that there will be nowhere to put humans so they thought to build ships that are so big tha a clolony can live in it. Scientists have also bee talking about making buildings three times bigger than a normal one in the sea so that too colonies can live in it. But I'll talk about that later.

The Terrafugia Transition





The Terrafugia Transition is a road able Light Sport Aircraft designed by a team of award-winning MIT-trained engineers for today’s demanding general aviation pilot.
Bring more flexibility and convenience to your flying. Keep your Transition® in your garage. Drive to your local airport, fly up to 400NM, land, convert, and drive directly to your destination. You’ll always be ready to drive or fly.
Converting from road to flight mode requires a few simple commands in the cockpit and a normal pre-flight. Transform back to a street legal vehicle without having to leave your seat.
Never let questionable weather cancel or endanger your trip again. Simply divert and continue on the ground until the weather clears.
Designed to automotive crash safety standards, with an option for a full-vehicle parachute, Terrafugia’s commitment to safety is apparent in the Transition’s form as well as function.



The flying car was designed to be use as a car and as a aircraft as well. Engineers made it to ,make life easier and to make money as well. The car closes it wings when turned into a car and it spreads its wings when it's about to fly.

Space Elevator


A Space Elevator is designed to transport material from one celestial body's surface to space. Scientists developed this elevator so they did not have need to use rocket powered space launcher. The elevator could go from the surface of the Earth to a counterweight that is placed in space.

Smart Armour


Today there's a new protection for athletes safety. It's called smart amour. They were specially developed to harden when an athlete such as skiers and bikers etc. Smart armour is like a new kind or amour for athletes, the armours are soft at first and when it comes to an impact it hardens. That is because the resulting material exhibits a material property called "strain rate sensitivity". Under normal conditions the molecules within the material are weakly bound and can move past each with ease, making the material flexible. But the shock of sudden deformation causes the chemical bonds to strengthen and the moving molecules to lock, turning the material into a more solid, protective shield.

3-D PRINTERS


3-D printers? Yea right. It may sound a little crazy but nowdays we do have printers that can print out organs and maybe in the future it will even print out whole body parts. It will help alot in the future. It could make new bodyparts like: hearts, arms, legs, everything that 6you ever imagined a printer couldn't do.
