Advancement for Humanity.
The ability to freeze goods has given the world a great advantage, perhaps one of the biggest in human history.
Today we have freezers on aircraft, shipping, fishing trawlers, factories and trucks both road and rail cars. Meanwhile various types of goods from meats to flowers can now cross thousands of miles and arrive fresh the same day.
Prior to the invention of the refrigerator ice and cool boxes were it and food could not really be moved very far or kept very long. Flowers really had to be picked fresh and many other things eaten with in at least 24 hours.

Underwater Cities.
Jules Verne.
It is probably to expensive to build a underwater city that is imagined in 19th Century science-fiction and would they really be viable? It has been the development of the nuclear deep water capable submarines that perhaps has put to bed this concept.
There are some inshore underwater observatories and most for tourism, rather than science around the world. But it would still remain an advantage to build a base to study the potentials for even future planetary expeditions say to Titan and some of the moons of both Saturn and Jupiter?

ROBOT's Part-Two.
The Revolution.
We have now entered the age of relying upon electronic computer systems to control many aspects of our daily lives. Travel, communications, pleasure, mapping and medicine.
People today are no longer able to cope without their mobile phone, aircraft are flying on remote control, injured people and animals are monitored by various machines, cars and vehicles are built by robots.
Robots can do many good things, but I expect that in time we may have a revolution to turning it all off just like the American TV series by the same name?
