Sometimes I find it a little depressing that (at least through my laymen eyes) we are nearing a technological plateau and that more research into physics is unlikely to get us to a world describe in traditional science fiction with FTL drives and large metal spaceships that can take you from planet to planet.

FTL drive is not needed; people think too small.

That's absolutely true, but I wonder what it will take to take that point home for everybody.

The first big project. After that there will be movies explanations stories expectations all that stuff. And to some degree it's already out there. We have those things now related to travel that's not faster than light.

And tell somebody put something together for real, FPL is just a whole lot more sexy.
