Re: What has SF NOT predicted?

I was having a sort of argument with my hubby about something similar. I stated that sci fi has done more for modern science than he thinks, and while we aren't colonizing mars or the moon yet, I believe we could if we weren't so reliant on the concept of money, if Nasa and other nations had unlimited research and development capacity rather than being restricted by the amount of money they receive we would be on the moon by now. Its possible, scientifically, just not doable yet, monetarily.
