Technology brings unity? Star Wars Part I.


From: http://www.free-extras.com/images/star_wars-11308.htm
     Star Wars has always been fascinating to many folks especially the way the producers predict how life would be on earth. Technology on planet Earth would be far more advance then ever predicted. Bullets will be turned into lasers, which are far more deadlier and faster. No longer would phones be used, but holograms; projected image of the person talking. Robots that exist can translate over 1 million languages and have knowledge far beyond a computer let alone the capacity of a human brain. Not only will there be levitating cars, but people could travel to different planets through spaceships. Humans and other life forms live in unity on multiple planets.


       Humans have already started trying ways to figure such far advance abilities. For example, the famous light saber from the Star Wars series has almost came to life. Scientists have been trying to figure out how to keep plasma in a solid form. However, the problem scientists have with plasma is they can' keep it in a certain state once without their testing tube. As a result, maybe in the soon future such weapons can be made. Humans also have tried making robots, but they could only retain minimal tasks. For example, the robot vacuum only vacuums the floor and has no other option available. This is nowhere as close to the robots we see in Star Wars. However with all this new found technology humans are trying to build, will it actually help the planet Earth?


        Star Wars underlines a hidden message. War. All this technology makes it easier for war to be started especially people who want to take over the world or has opposing views.  The Sith use robot armies equipped with laser guns as infantry to attack the Republic. Not only are there robots, but the Sith too have light sabers of which they can wield. To be human, means to pick a side. Will you be helping the good or the evil? The belief of individual humans come into big play. Sith are like the terrorists of today. They oppose the way of life or want us to conform with them. In present day, the advance of weaponry has cause the Earth great harm. People can easy obtain weapons if they have the money to pay. Or weaponry can be made from simple household items. Although technology can be useful there is a certain point were we need to know how to control it.
