Exactly one thousand years from now, in the year 2003....
Politics
In the Future the idea of capitalism and communism will be primitive ideas created by a primitive society, known only to those future historians.
In the future there will be cross-galactic peace and a variety of "alien" democracies that enable people to have the same rights as today except with none of the "free loading" that the Earth's systems currently hold.
There will be no such powerful man to rule the universe and the idea will be very barbaric and downright stupid to those living in the furure.
There will be no kings or queens or royal anythings as equal rights will have prevailed after many wars.No single person can be singly responsible for the fate of the universe and a form of cross galactic voting will occur so that all walks of society will be able to affect the outcome of the world. There will still be certain "candidates" and "parties" only with very different ideas and that will not "broadcast" as such, but be judged on their performances from the previous years. There will be people from a special commitee to oversee that everything is fair and runs smoothly.
Language
There will be no one "dictionary" large enough to hold all of the different races vocabulary, if it was different, instead the idea will be useless as all of the galaxy(ies) will speak the same language for convenience. There will be certain memory chips that you can put into your brain to gain superior knowledge of "the language" but these will be very expensive. All the galaxy will speak the same language as the thought of separate languages would be ludicrous with the amount of individual planets and races.
Society will not speak in "clicks" as in modern day (2003) films, but in a superior form of telekenisis (as not all of the creatures of the galaxy(ies) will have mouths). Of course there will be those less educated that will not have the vocabulary of those superiorly educated.
The fates of the known planets
This is what will happen to the currently known planets
1. Mercury, this planet will become the universes beach and sunbathing "resort" this is where all those who want to enjoy heat or have a holiday in the sun will live. Few people will actually live here and not all creatures will cope with the heat. There will be many complexes for those wishing to have a holiday to stay inn and the planet will have many equivalents of "travel reps".
2. Venus, unlike Mercury, Venus will not become the places for beaches simply because of all the gases. This planets gas layers will be so dense holiday shuttle trips will not be able to see the planets surface, because of this, Venus will become the home of those wishing to have a quiet, peaceful life.
3. Earth will sustain little life in the future. Clever people will recognise that the planet has a high water coverage and so will make the planet completely water-logged. Humans will move on and adapt to the known universe, except those from the poorest walks of life, who will now inhabit what tiny land masses are left. Earth will hold part of the universes water supply, but will have only resivoirs for this, as Earth will be so polluted that it becomes the universes rubbish dump.
4. Mars will become the resort of "sand skiers" and will be a planet for cross galaxy tourists to visit and the rest of the universe to take sandboarding/skiing trips to. Mars has the universes highest mountains and will also be the paradise of mountain and rock climbers.
5. Jupiter will be the home of many people as (in our galaxy) will be one of the biggest planets. It will be like London is in the presesnt day (a densely populated city).
6. Saturn will be the home of tourist excursions the universe over. (play on the phrase "the world over"!)Saturn will attract "ring surfers" who are the universes dare devils, this will become a popular sport.
7. Uranus will be renamed to "Uras" which people will realise is just as funny as the old name!. Eventually the universes commitee will get annoyed and blow the planet up as it is/was useless anyway.
8. Neptune will be where trainee magicians go as it has a mystical shroud around it. People will go and watch futuristic magic shows there (magic will actually be real, but only on Neptune)
9. Pluto will be where the futuristic Inuits live. Another skiiers paradise and one where all the creatures who are adapte dto cold climates will live. Pluto will be "cute" in the eyes of tourists of the "B" category.(see the next section)
Genders in the future
There will be no "boys/men" and "girls/women" in the future as all the planets will not be able to sell if people from other planets are what they class as boys or girls because reproductory organs will be completely different depending on the species!
The universes commitee will eventually decide to name it the "A" category
and the "B" category.(A being todays boys and B todays girls).
Sex will differ depending on the species, although breeding will not be allowed across different galaxy inhabitant types because of the strange cross breeds that might occur. Although it will still happen (like drugs are illegal, but some people can still obtain them)
Conventional breeding will be the general way
e.g
Nowadays "conventional" is man and woman, which translates to A and B
Obviously there will be B and B and A and A exceptions (Im sure everyone doesn't need the comparison, and can work it out..)
Technology in the Future
There will be devices called "mind cameras" (in our current, primitive language), basically it goes in the persons ear and takes a "photo" (again modern day equivalent) that capture sthe thought onto transgallactic mono drive (like modern paper, it is the main stationery usesd to "write" on)
Televisions will not exist, instead people go to sleep and what they "dream"(another language comparison) happens in real life, and they can access other peoples aswell, like modern day TV. This will all have limits, for example no explicit "dreams" will come true as there could be people killing/screwing people randomly.
There will be technology to constantly "improve" peoples lives, just like modern day.
Society
There will, of course, have to be the equivalent of the police to ensure that the law is upheld and that crime is kept down.
Society will be structured very much as of today, with richer people at the top of the pecking order, mid class people will be halfway up and poor people will be at the bottom of the pecking order.
There will be no money, as people will deem it stupid, who wants metal coins that you cannot use for any practical value, instead all money will
be the preffered food(s) of that planet (as currency is the preffered monetary value of a country). This will work in very much the same way as it currently does, with bartering available on some planets and the value of some food will be worth more than other foods. There will be places to swap your currency for the currency of the planet that you are wanting to visit.
Jobs will be exactly the same as those at the present day, only the sports will be relevant to the time and people will not want to give the equivalent of footballers so much, instead more money will be given to useful professions such as Doctors, teachers and lawyers.
The jobs will still do as they currently do, teachers will teach the younger generation(s) and lawyers will defend the clients of the future.
Racism will be abolished as there will be no "normal" on planets as everyone will be form their own, completely different planets.
Names will be contemparary to the times.
e.g
In the past, these names were popular*:
.Fan
.Nancy
.Meg
.Reginald
Currently, these names are popular*:
.John
.Jonthan
.Emma
.Andrew
.Sophie
In the Future, these names will be popular:
.Jehrasabet
.Gool
.Zoof
.Joak
* = This is a generalization, no offence meant to anyone
Obviously they will not sound as "stupid" and out of place as they do now, the reason they will be names like "Gool" or "Zoof" is because they will have meanings then they will be popular thaen and they sound like sophisticated names (parents will use these to show off)
There will still be a large tourism industry (so large it will be the highest paying job!). But people will travel intergallacticallly, not just around one planet, thus the tourism industry being larger, due to the vastness of space.
There will be some smarter races and some superbly well-rounded races. Most races will be of the same level of sophistication.
Intergalactic travel
The vastness of space will really begin to show and people will be living in about 5 known galaxies, with 1 just being explored.
People will jet between planets for conferences and work, it will be a common occurence.
I hope you can identify to this insight into the future (especially as it took well over an hour to write!)
Obviously it is my opinion but it may come true.......just think of Nostradamus or George Orwell's book 1984.
Do I win anything for all this? It is just an attempt at an interseting topic that is actually interesting and a variance from WORLDS LONGEST THREADS which get boring...
Anyway, Enjoy (or hoped you enjoyed it!)
Don't have time to chech it all, sorry!
Handy Man
I kind of read that.
From what I read that is extremely interesting.
:(
Well worth the read, epsecially seeing as it took you an hour to write! I like your ideas and such. Very interesting! Fan was a name? I thought F anny was..!
Pretty boring post, really.
And why's it in the "Intelligent Discussion" forum?
