Travel › Re: Why Are Most Aeroplanes Painted With White colour? (photos) by Explorers(m):
Opinions:

*. Other colours hides dirts which possibly increases drag.

*. White paints often indicates problems like leaking seals, internal pipe leaks, corrosion in exposed flap tracks etc.

*. White paints doesnt fade easily.

*. White paint is cheaper than other colours (either because it costs less and/or weighs less).

*. White makes it easier to apply names and logos of other companies when leasing your aircraft to someone else. Saves a trip to the paint shop, instead you just apply stickers.

Women will be routinely impregnated by artificial insemination rather than by a man. More couples are choosing advanced fertility techniques over old-fashioned conception. Pre-implantation genetic diagnosis, in which an artificially inseminated embryo is carefully selected among other inseminated embryos for desirability, is becoming increasingly common in fertility clinics. Using this technique, it's now possible to screen an embryo for about half of all congenital illnesses. Within the next decade, researchers will be able to screen for almost all congenital illnesses prior to embryo implantation.

Oceans will be extensively farmed and not just for fishing. We will need to feed 10 billion people and nature can't keep up with demand, so we will need much more ocean farming.

Even farther into the deep, the report predicts the creation of underwater cities that use the water to foster breathable atmospheres.
If seventy-one percent of the Earth’s surface is sea, and that percentage will be increasing due to global warming, it makes sense to consider living underwater.
We’ve seen some incredible underwater houses go on sale in Dubai recently, but in 2116 this won’t just be common place, there will be whole cities submerged underwater protected by a huge bubble.

Our cities will have completely transformed with towering mega structures that will "dwarf today's skyscrapers" and earth structures that tunnel 25 stories underground.

Travel will have revolutionized too, and roads will be a thing of the past when everyone travels the skyways in their own personal drones.

Our world today is almost unrecognizable from a century ago, so what can we expect jumping a century ahead? This was compiled by a group of scientists, architects and urban planners who have some great insight into what our world will look like in 100 years.
