Yes I'm fairly young. No, that doesn't mean I'm automatically dumber than you or have less life experience, thats just generally the case. I am not your general case.

If you look at emerging technology right now you can estimate when tech like this will appear:
Medical Technology (i.e. flash cloning, cloning, cybernetics): about 65 years

AI on the level of a dumb AI: 45 years

AI on the level of a smart AI: 60 years

AI on the Cortana level: 75 to 90 years

Spaceships: 100 or so years

Super soldier level genetic augumentation: 75 years

powered armour (MJOLNIR lavel): 35 to 45 years

Armour lock level kinetic shielding: 60 to 70 or so years

Active camo: 10 or so years; for Halo level active camo: another 15 or so years onto that

slipspace engines: 200 or so years

Slipspace drives obviously. That way, when we screw up this planet in a hundred or so years, we have a backup plan. If I could vote for two systems, it would be the UNSC's power systems that don't need hydrocarbons to run and still work just as well as crude oil, and the slipspace drive.

None of that will happen if we run out of hydrocarbons without finding an alternative and start WWIII instead. Someone work on natural gas power stations and clean fission already!

It takes a real man to back down from a fight, but it takes a spartan to finish it!

AI on the level of a dumb AI: 45 years- Nah, I would give it about 10-15 years

AI on the level of a smart AI: 60 years This seems right

AI on the Cortana level: 75 to 90 years Try never, because cortana was made more amazing by the forerunner info she got off of alpha halo. So unless we find alien ruins we are not going to have cortana like A.I. anytime soon :P

Spaceships: 100 or so years Um I'm going to assume you mean big space ships because we already have spaceships. I would say in about 50 years or so not 100.

Super soldier level genetic augumentation: 75 years I agree

powered armour (MJOLNIR lavel): 35 to 45 years No, I would say about 20-25 years, we already have a one that can lift things. Can wait for that to go into active service :D

Armour lock level kinetic shielding: 60 to 70 or so yearsNah i would say 50-60 years

Active camo: 10 or so years; for Halo level active camo: another 15 or so years onto that Agree

slipspace engines: 200 or so years I would say about 80-120 years dude -_-

I would like Bio Foam to be brought into the present, it would save a lot of soldiers and even civilians' lives.
