By the year 2100, we'll be driving floating magnetic cars, connecting to the Internet with our contact lenses and bringing back extinct animals using their DNA, according to physicist Michio Kaku. He joins us to discuss his predictions and to explain why he believes such forecasts typically underestimate the pace of technological progress.

Host: Michael Krasny

Guests:

  • Michio Kaku, chair and professor of theoretical physics at the City College of New York and author of "Physics of the Impossible: A Scientific Exploration of the World of Phasers, Force Fields, Teleportation, and Time Travel"
