International Linear Collider
The International Linear Collider is the proposed successor to the Large Hadron Collider. The International Linear Collider will have less power than the Large Hadron Collder, but its' measurements are far more accurate. The most likely location of the International Linear Collider will be Japan due to the japanese government offering to contribute half of the costs. Construction should occur from 2015 to 2026. The International Linear Collider should conduct research into the Higgs Boson and Dark Matter.

International Linear Collider
The International Linear Collider is a proposed collider that is to be the successor to the Large Hadron Collider and will most likely be built in Japan as the japanese government has offered to contribute half of the costs. Construction would most likely begin in 2015 and end in 2026. The International Linear Collider is supposed to have less power than the Large Hadron Collider yet the measurements will be far more accurate. The International Linear Collider would conduct research into the Higgs Boson, Dark Matter, and extra-dimensional physics.
International Linear Collider
The International Linear Collider is a proposed collider that is to be the successor to the Large Hadron Collider. Although this is a proposal there is another one competing with the ILC which is the Compact Linear Collider. The Compact Linear Collider and the International Linear Collider are suppose to not have as much power as the Large Hadron Collider, but the measurements of the collision will be far more precise. The location site of either one will probably be Japan as the japanese government has offered to pay for half of the costs. Research undertaken at the colliders will involve superstring theory, higgs boson research, and extra-dimensional physics.

White Juday Warp Field Interferometer
The White Juday Warp Field Interferometer is a proposed testbed in which the warping of spacetime would be conducted at a small scale, and if spacetime warping is possible then it could lead to the later development of the Alcubierre Drive. This is only a proposal at this moment and there has been no planned construction of the device or location although a NASA science team is researching the possiblity.

Dyson Sphere
The dyson sphere is a hypothetical station that could house millions of people, and could serve as a place to support life. It could be the size of the solar system, and gravity is created by the rotation of the dyson sphere due to the centrifugal force. I think it is a good idea, but its construction is most likely only feasible when humanity is a type 2 civilization on the Kardashev scale.

Plasmaphones
Plasmaphones are cool devices that are comprised of a globe like structure that contains plasma, and this device is used to make music. It has ionized plasma channels and causes a variety of different sounds to be made once the buttons on the plasmaphones are pressed.

Kardashev Scale
The Kardashev scale is a way to measure the technological advancement of a civilization. It was invented by soviet physicist Nikolai Semenovich Kardashev. It was created to not only rate our own civilization, but also the hypothetical technological capability of alien civilizations. It mainly measures the energy output of a civilization though it can also measure other feats of technology. Like a type 1 civilization can control the entire energy output of its own planet, and a type 2 can control the entire energy output of its own star, and a type 3 can control the entire energy output of its own galaxy. There are hypothetical even higher levels though these are unlikely as a type 4 controls the whole energy output of the whole universe, and a type 5 can create custom universes.
