12 Hilariously Wrong Tech Predictions
History provides plenty of reasons to be skeptical of those who claim to have a crystal ball.
3. "To place a man in a multi-stage rocket and project him into the controlling gravitational field of the moon
where the passengers can make scientific observations, perhaps land alive, and then return to earth - all that
constitutes a wild dream worthy of Jules Verne. I am bold enough to say that such a man-made voyage will
never occur regardless of all future advances." -- Lee DeForest, American radio pioneer and inventor of the
vacuum tube, in 1926.
4. "Heavier-than-air flying machines are impossible." - Lord Kelvin, British mathematician and physicist,
president of the British Royal Society, 1895.
5. "Nuclear-powered vacuum cleaners will probably be a reality in 10 years." - Alex Lewyt, president of
vacuum cleaner company Lewyt Corp., in the New York Times in 1955.
6. "There is not the slightest indication that nuclear energy will ever be obtainable. It would mean that the
atom would have to be shattered at will." -- Albert Einstein, 1932.
11."[Television] won't be able to hold on to any market it captures after the first six months. People will soon
get tired of staring at a plywood box every night." -- Darryl Zanuck, movie producer, 20th Century Fox, 1946.
12. When the Paris Exhibition (of 1878] closes, electric light will close with it and no more will be heard of it."
-- Oxford professor Erasmus Wilson.
