Flying cars. It's 2020. Where are the flying cars? I don't mean giant drones either. I'm talking honest to goodness anti-gravity floating vehicles.
I love watching the stories of scientific discovery on the reboot of the Cosmos series (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos:_A_Spacetime_Odyssey https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos:_A_Spacetime_Odyssey) and I can't help but feel we lack a true understanding of gravity. I'm waiting for that one brilliant thinker to have a eureka moment with a simple experiment that makes it all very clear.

It's just that it's not as accessible as you and I would like it to be [2]. Unfortunately, you cannot argue aesthetics with the laws of nature.

[2] As in: Even solving simple symmetrical problems requires dealing with some quite frustrating differential equations.
