We can manipulate matter in a number of ways unimagined in 1970. For example; trapping atoms with lasers, artificial proteins, meta materials, high vacuums, near absolute zero temperatures, high energy plasma, photonic memory, microwave atomic control, ion traps, scanning tunneling microscopes, high temperature high tesla super conducting magnets, gene sequencing and splicing.
I think it depends where you look at technology and how closely...
- sgt101 10y agoAlso look at additive manufacturing - we can make things that were literally impossible to fabricate five years ago with a 200k sintering setup. 4d printing is pretty cool to! In your examples consider a modern turbofan blade, a single crystal of titanium grown in a xenon atmosphere and then heated white hot before being blown up like a balloon so as to allow refrigeration during operation! Another mind blowing sector is the change in medical scanning, ct, pet, mri - all new since 1970
