It's amazing to think that so much of the future we imagined decades ago (flying cars, robots, jetpacks, maybe even leisure space travel) might be here if energy weren't an issue. If there's ever a 10x breakthrough in battery tech (today's performance with 10x the energy density), I'd bet the world would change pretty quickly. Even a 2x breakthrough.
