- zeroonetwothree 4y agoI actually think we’ve done pretty well considering there are physical limits. Space we’ve obviously done really well. But even in commercial aviation we have planes carrying more passengers that use less fuel, less crew, and have far better safety records than 1976. And tickets are much cheaper as well.
- danjac 4y agoTrue, but the advancements seem incremental rather than revolutionary (i.e. compared to the first half of the 20th century)
