‘A rocket will never be able to leave
the Earth’s atmosphere.’
New York Times (1936)
At the time, it was hard to imagine that sending a rocket into space would be
possible. However, some years later, the first unmanned rocket left the Earth’s
atmosphere. Not only that, but in the next years it was possible to send humans
to space. Most people know Yuri Gagarin, the first human in outer space (1961)
and Neil Armstrong, the first man on the moon (1969).

people have tried. So, let’s see what the future holds.
b. With the world changing so quickly, it is very difficult to make correct predictions

are a long way off. Here are a few examples.

it’s something special. But how about in the past? What was life like then?

‘I think there’s a world market
for about five computers.’
Thomas J. Watson, chairman of the board of IBM (1943)
This prediction seems ridiculous today, but it was true for ten years after
Watson said it. Even so, today there are about 1 billion computers in use
in the world. Experts predict there will be 2 billion by 2015.
‘Television won’t last because people will soon
get tired of staring at a plywood box every night.’
Darryl Zanuck (1946)
Zanuck definitely got it wrong about television. The total number of TV sets in the
world is over 1.5 billion. In the USA, where the TV plays a major role in everyday life,
there are over 2000 TV channels and on average, a TV set is on for 6 hours and 47
minutes every day.

‘Man will not fly for 50 years.’
Wilbur Wright, to his brother Orville (1901)
In 1901, the Wright brothers tried out their flying machine for the first time
but were very disappointed when they didn’t succeed. However, two years
later, in 1903, they took to the skies and entered the history books. And
only 18 years after Wilbur made his prediction, Captain John Alcock and
Lieutenant Arthur Whitten Brown made the first non-stop transatlantic
flight from Newfoundland, Canada to Ireland.
