Material science and chemical industries: We used to have 19 million known chemical substances, but now we have some 5 billion. We witnessed the birth of countless new industries and opportunities through the rapid acceleration of pure science. Mines were mined automatically with virtual robotics, and materials were engineered from constituent materials closer to their final destination. Africa was reborn as the birthplace fo the modern economy, as the raw materials used for electric vehicles and other industries led to massive resource boom.
