User:Pereant antiburchius/Predictions in non-fiction

This article lists a chronological time line of major non-fictional and documented predictions by scientists and field experts, concerning human evolution, technology, biotechnology and related fields.

Inclusion criteria for list entries:
 * The prediction must be a major milestone or otherwise have a significant impact
 * The prediction must directly apply to the future of human kind
 * The prediction must be made by a field expert
 * The prediction must have a well-grounded scientific explanation for its plausibility

Improper entries are:
 * Predictions which are highly disputed predictions by a vast majority of experts
 * Estimates (e.g. "By 2030, 10% of deaths in the worlds are caused by AIDS")
 * Predictions which have a very remote relation to human kind, however major they might be (e.g. extinction of unrelated species, with the possible exception of an extinction level event)
 * Predictions which may widely vary in prediction date (e.g. "In about 5 billion years, the sun will enter a red giant phase")
