2. Genetic Engineering
- Chances We’ll See It: This Technically Exists Already
When you think about genetic engineering, people think of something like Halo or Captain America where someone is injected with something to make them a super-soldier. However, that part of genetic engineering is not exactly possible. At least how it’s described.
The kind that we can do right now involves children before they are born. Have a heart problem that runs in your family? We can actually help to track this down in the DNA of sperm and eggs and remove what might cause it. While we’re in the early stages of genetic engineering like this, it has already proven to work. We’re likely going to be even further with it in ten years.
