Eureka!- Whatever Happened to the Future?

We are now 16 years into the 21st century. We are living in the actual future. The future of science fiction. The future of science fantasy. We were - we are - living in the time and space that people like Jules Verne and Ray Bradbury and Stanislaw Lem and Arthur C. Clarke and Issac Asimov dreamed about. So why does it feel so underwhelming? This month, on Eureka, Umapagan Ampikaipakan takes a look at the future. Or rather a future. One that should have been. One that could have been. One that never quite was.
