It is believed that at the current technological level of human civilization it is impossible to build a time machine. However, from time to time, reports appear in the press about secret time travel experiments conducted by the military.
The most famous two such "experiments":
Philadelphia Experiment (Rainbow Project, Philadelphia Experiment). In 1943, at the US Navy base in Philadelphia, they studied the problem of the invisibility of warships for radar. In the course of these studies, an "electromagnetic bubble" was created - a screen that deflected radar radiation past the ship. Once during these experiments, the Eldridge warship was surrounded by an "electromagnetic bubble", which suddenly disappeared in front of everyone, and then reappeared hundreds of miles away in Norfolk (Virginia). The ship's crew assured that they had visited the future.
Montauk project (Phoenix project). Research conducted from 1943 to 1983 at a US military base near Montauk, New York. Many subjects reported that they had traveled to the future.
Below is an interview with Alfred Bilek (Al Bielek), who talks about his journey through time into the future. Alfred claims to be the reincarnation of Ed Cameron. Together with his brother Duncan Cameron, they participated in the Montauk Project and time traveled into the future. Subsequently, their memory was erased by Montauk technology, but according to Al, the technology was not flawless. The memory eventually returned. Duncan's memory also returns, but more slowly. The details of the experiment may be covered in subsequent articles. There are a lot of rumors around the experiment and the story of Bilek. The veracity of the information is at the discretion of the readers. This article talks about Al's journey into the future, specifically the year 2749, and what he saw in that year.
Al's journey began in 1943 when he and his brother Duncan jumped off the USS Eldridge during the Philadelphia Experiment. With his brother, they ended up in the hospital in 2137, having experienced severe injuries. They remember waking up in a hospital room. During this time, Al alone traveled to the year 2749 and spent two years there. Al remembers his stay in the future year 2749.
Al saw a very technologically advanced civilization. There were "weightless cities" and cities on earth. Houses in the city were 2100-2200 storey. At that time, people had already surpassed the barriers of gravity and were able to build some kind of "anti-gravity platforms". In such houses these platforms were inserted at certain intervals, and thus the cities were built. Besides, if they wanted the city to be "floating", they could do it. The city could move from one part of the Earth to another.
Their government was an absolute synthetic computer system. Every city had such a system. Al doesn't know why they built "floating cities" but that was the case that year. This sentient system was very radioactive, in the form of a crystal. “When I was called for an interview with this synthetic intelligence, I had to put on a protective suit against radiation. The crystal itself floated in the middle of the room. I was interviewed telepathically, I was called for more than one interview." The computer wanted to know what Al was doing there and if he remembered anything about why he was there. At the time, Al didn't remember how he got there.
The structure of society at that time was - 100% socialism. Everything was free, there were no banks, there was no money. Children could be brought up by parents (married, or living in a civil marriage), or by the state.
Since Al spent 2 years there, he began to work as a guide (guide) around the city. All people had to be trained, receive specialties and fulfill certain roles in society. Al became a guide, he showed visitors the city, the sights of the city. They were interested in floating cities. The journey took place on a kind of "moving sidewalk", you could jump out wherever you wanted. The other vehicle was a kind of pipe apparatus (similar to the Montauk operator) that takes you wherever you want in the city, only this apparatus is less intense and local.
The children really liked this trip, it was entertainment for them. It was the task of the tour guides to show what was happening in the cities. Naturally, not all cities were the same. It is interesting to note that at that time there was no external government other than the local state of each city. But all cities followed the same format - each city was controlled by a synthetic mind. All individual synthetic minds were connected to others. It was like the worldwide web.
“I asked a lot of questions. The mind had a "nickname" - Lama. How about a war? There were no wars, wars are in the past. There was no army, no police, no navy, no air force. At the expense of the satellite system, there was no answer. When asked about protection from a potential invasion from outside, the mind replied that there were defense systems for each individual city, but it was not supposed to know about them.
Cities were big and small. They had all modern comforts known to us, plus others. There were units of synthetic food in the apartments, you could either bring fresh food from outside, or synthesize it. They had restaurants and they had local shops. Everything was free, but they had limits, otherwise people would just take whatever they wanted. They also had a system of credits. Depending on the social level a person occupied, he could enjoy more "pleasures". They had entertainment, they had television, and something like a radio. They also travelled. They had train systems all over the planet, but they weren't like we have today. They were much wider, at least twice what we have today, and they were longer. The journey was something like an excursion or a cruise.
Al does not remember seeing a map of the world (he saw a heavily altered map of the world in 2137 when he was in the hospital). They didn't show me, because it wasn't part of the society, then they usually didn't talk much about the outside world. People who were branded "heretics", who did not want to be part of this free, but secure, society, were placed in the yellow zone (having received a reprimand from the "lama"), and in more serious cases, in the red zone. Those who went beyond the red zone were no longer visible, most likely they were destroyed.
They had cars, but not many. The city had a transportation system.
In terms of appearance, the human appearance has changed a lot, in the sense that it has become more elegant. But also there were fewer variations in the appearance itself. Where Al was, there were only white people. Perhaps in other cities there were people of other races.
“I asked: computer systems run the entire planet, they did not build themselves. Who built them? As a result, Alu was introduced to the builders (designers) of these intelligent systems. They were different from other people. They said they were the result of genetic engineering that had been going on for centuries. In 2600 they decided to experiment if a synthetic mind could rule the entire planet. (Possibly great-great-great-great-great-grandchildren of Bill Gates, the interviewer joked). They didn't interfere with the computer system unless something was working. There was one case... the computer was planned so that it couldn't lie. If he did not want to say something, he could say: "this information cannot be revealed." One computer once lied and needed to be replaced.
These people said that they went through genetic engineering in the 22nd-23rd century and they became mind-dominated beings on Earth. They called themselves what they called themselves. When they planned this system, they foresaw that there might be a birth defect in it, but it only began to appear at the beginning of the 28th century: If there is socialism, a set of laws, everything is free, then over time people lose the motivation to develop and create. If people do not have the opportunity to somehow contribute to the creative process, they lose motivation, and this system eventually falls apart.
In the 22nd-23rd century, the world's population was only 300 million (more on what happened to the other billions of people in the next article). It was decided that the ideal number of the Earth's population should be 500 million, due to the lack of natural resources. They approached this number in the 25th century. The reason they wanted to create a socialist system (despite the lessons of history) is because they didn't want to go back to the private banking system that has reigned for the last 10 centuries. They did not want the struggle for property to again lead to wars, as it had been in the past. On the other hand, they understood that when people create or create something, and although they are motivated by the desire for self-protection, or how to fly faster than others into space, or how to defeat the enemy in war, the creative process still follows from all this and discoveries contribute to general knowledge humanity. But since people do it, in the end everything gets out of control. Therefore, they decided to build socialism controlled by synthetic intelligence.
To the best of Al's knowledge, these superintelligent beings did not use the system for personal gain. They were not ambitious, they did not want power or control. Separate from the cities, they had their own system, their own culture, their own art, they had their own philosophical beliefs. Religion did not exist in the 28th century, it practically did not exist in the 21st century. They believe in the Supreme creature but they thought of Him differently from today's religions. This God cannot be reached or known, His level of consciousness surpasses all living beings. They believe that the Divine knows material world through us, that is, there is a connection of relationships. Being outside the physical world, God maintains contact with the physical world through us. Such is their worldview. They are the descendants of the 21st century windmakers movement.
In the 28th century, people already knew that after 3000 there would be no life on Earth. They traveled back in time to try to prevent the extinction of the human race on Earth.
The technology of becoming invisible
Bilek describes various ways to achieve invisibility, and supports them with photographic materials. The video was filmed in the 90s.
The video shows a famous photo of President Bush, a secret agent and an invisible man in the middle holding a fishing rod. The photo shows one fishing rod “hanging in the air” and footprints in the foam.
According to popular legend, in 1943 the US Navy was conducting secret experiments based in the Port of Philadelphia designed to put Einstein's unified field theory into practice. While conspiracy theorists debate the authenticity of the Philadelphia Experiment, one of its alleged participants, Alfred Bilek, claims that the real purpose of the Philadelphia Experiment was time travel.
In 1990, Bilek reported that he traveled to two time periods in the future, only to return to the present and tell people his story. This statement marked the beginning of a series of fantastic revelations by the time traveler Alfred Bilek.
unusual child
An unusual child, as Bilek calls himself, was born in 1927 in an ordinary family. He claims that the memory first came to him during a Christmas party when he was only nine months old. On this day, he found that he could fully understand the conversations of adults who were talking next to him. With age, Alfred became known as a "walking encyclopedia", which allowed him to establish himself well among his peers.
Service in the Navy
During the Second World War, Bilek joined the Navy to contribute to the fight against the Nazi regime. During this period, he made his first time travel. According to Bilek himself, he was a simple naval officer who served aboard the destroyer USS Eldridge in 1943.
Jump to 2137
In subsequent years, the destroyer Eldridge became famous for allegedly becoming a secret location for an experiment in Philadelphia. On August 13, 1943, Bilek and his brother witnessed some strange events on board the destroyer. They tried to hide in a safe place and unexpectedly ended up in the year 2137.
Stay in a futuristic hospital
According to Bilek, in 2137 he was treated for radiation damage using modern high-tech procedures based on vibration and lighting. The entertainment for the patients was to watch exclusively educational and news programs - the only choice of programs on television in the whole world.
Planet Earth has changed a lot
When Bilek arrived in the year 2137, he discovered that planet Earth had undergone major geographic changes. In particular, he noted that the coastlines of all continents have changed dramatically. Florida is gone except for the Panhandle. The Great Lakes became one Great Lake, and Atlanta was three miles from the Atlantic Ocean.
United States and Canada destroyed
In 2137, the infrastructure of Canada and the United States of America was completely destroyed. The central government has lost its power and is a thing of the past. On the ruins of the former Canada and the United States, martial law was introduced.
Population decline
According to Bilek, the United States and Europe have come together to counter the joint Sino-Russian threat.
As a result of hostilities between opposing blocs, billions of people died. The total global population after the conflict was only 300 million.
Journey to 2749
From 2137, Bilek was sent to 2749, where he stayed for two years before being redirected back to 2137 so he could pick up his brother. In 2749, the world adapted technology to create mobile, floating cities. Government does not exist in any form; launched "Synthetic intelligent computer system", which works with the help of telepathy.
No wars in 2749
Bilek stated that there were no wars in 2749 because, according to him, they were practically impossible. There were no soldiers and military, naval forces and air forces, as well as other branches of the armed forces capable of conducting military operations. For this reason, any conflict between countries was inappropriate.
The triumph of socialism
In 2749 no one needed money because there was no need for it. Each person had his own so-called "credits", which allowed him to buy whatever he wanted at any time.
Return to the past
So Bilek is sent back from 2749 to 2137 to pick up his brother. From there, the brothers ferry to 1984, where they are persuaded to return to their original time (1943) and stop the Philadelphia experiment so that it never happens again. The two men went back in time and did their job.
Montauk Project
After his time in the navy, Bilek was educated in electronics. He soon learned that the US military was actively involved in various experiments related to the development of modern technology and the study of the possibilities of the human psyche. Soon the time traveler was recruited into the Montauk Project.
There are several assumptions about the goals of this project. Some believe that the project was intended to create psychological weapons, as well as research the possibilities of teleportation.
Secret work
Although Bilek worked in California, his importance to the Montauk project was so great that he was given access to a top-secret network of high-speed trains. This allowed him to work full-time during his main working hours, and then at night to carry out a secret government assignment at Montauk. When the "time tunnel" was improved, a man could simply teleport from one city to another.
Program director position
During the 1970s, Bilek was director of the program for psychics who worked at Montauk. In this position, he oversaw the project and provided significant influence for its development. Bilek also went on business trips several times.
Journey to Mars
Bilek has traveled to Mars several times. His memory also retained memories of trips to a research station in 100,000 BC. e. and to other planets in order to fill the canisters with light and dark energy.
Bilek's revelations
After Bilek spoke publicly about his unusual adventures, the United States government completely denied the information he provided, but did not prevent the time traveler from communicating with journalists. The reason for this lies in the fact that for the majority it was obvious that Alfred Bilek had mental problems, so he was treated with condescension. However, there were people who believed his stories.
Film "Philadelphia Experiment"
Bilek's tales of mysterious experiments and time travel inspired filmmakers to create The Philadelphia Experiment, which was released in 1984. The plot revolves around the story of several sailors who, while serving on board the destroyer USS Eldridge, travel through time.
Admittedly, Bilek's story is quite different from what was shown in the film, but his very creation suggests that not everyone sees Bilek as a sick and imaginative person.
Death of Bilek
Alfred Bilek died on October 10, 2011 in Guadalajara, Mexico. At the time of his death he was 84 years old. The famous time traveler was buried in the local cemetery in Guadalajara. He has always maintained that his true identity is Edward Cameron, the son of a naval officer. Whether this is true or not is not for us to judge. One thing can be said with complete certainty - the life of Alfred Bilek will forever remain a mystery to history.
Former US military officer Alfred Bielek, who claims to have been one of the participants in the secret Philadelphia Experiment in 1943 and the Montauk Experiment in 1949, said that he happened to time travel to the future. According to Alfred, the organizers of the experiments at one time erased his memory, but over time it returned, albeit partially, writes Paranormics.
The American stated that he lived six weeks in 2137 and spent two years in the future - from 2749 to 2751. According to him, being in 2137, he ended up in the hospital, where he watched TV. “TVs at that time were not very different from modern ones. They were attached to the ceiling, you could control the viewing angle and the height of the TV above the floor, as well as move it closer to you. The sound came from speakers or headphones, as desired,” describes he.
Alfred noticed that the programs on TV were mainly related to news, history and geography. He doesn't remember the soap operas we know today were mostly educational, there were no entertainment channels.
According to the ex-military, in the future the level of the World Ocean will rise significantly, which will greatly change the outlines of the continents. The coastlines of all countries will disappear under water, just as coastal cities will disappear. Some cities will become not a place of residence, but a kind of museums. Many lakes will merge into one lake.
Along with these changes, American infrastructure will collapse, and something resembling an interim military government will be established in the world. "Computers were very popular. The banking system has undergone a strong change. Money still existed, but it was completely different. Banks no longer had as much power as they have now," Alfred is sure.
While in the year 2137, Al learned that only 300 million people lived on Earth at that time. What happened to those billions of people who live on the planet today, he never received an exact answer. He was only informed that a third World War between Russia and China on the one hand, and the US and Europe on the other. Then the Earth was gripped by disease, famine, the collapse of governments and the financial system, as well as the invasion of cannibal aliens who liked human meat. In the end, the aliens still managed to destroy.
The American does not remember how he then got to 2749. He saw there a very technologically advanced civilization with "weightless cities", with houses of 2100-2200 floors. At that time, people had already surpassed the barriers of gravity and could build some kind of "anti-gravity platforms". In such houses these platforms were inserted at certain intervals, and thus the cities were built. The city could move from one part of the Earth to another.
Each city was controlled by an "absolute synthetic computer system". It was very radioactive, in the form of a crystal. All individual synthetic intelligences were connected to others. It was like the World Wide Web. "When I was called for an interview with this synthetic mind, I had to put on a protective suit against radiation. The crystal itself hovered in the middle of the room. I was interviewed telepathically, I was called to more than one interview," recalls a participant in secret experiments.
According to him, the structure of society at that time was 100 percent socialism. "Everything was free, there were no banks, there was no money. Children could be brought up by parents or the state. All people had to study, receive specialties and fulfill certain roles in society," says Al.
"There were no wars, wars are a thing of the past. There was no army, there was no police, no navy, no air fleet. There was no answer to the satellite system. When asked about protection from potential intrusion from the outside, the mind answered that there were protection systems each individual city, but he is not supposed to know about them," says the ex-military.
In terms of appearance, the human appearance has changed a lot, in the sense that it has become more elegant. But also there were fewer variations in the appearance itself. Where Al was, there were only white people. Perhaps there were people of other races in other cities.
According to Alfred, religion no longer existed in the 28th century. People believed in a Supreme Living Being, but they thought of him differently than today's religions. "This God cannot be reached or known, his level of consciousness surpasses all living beings. They believe that the Divine knows the material world through us, that is, there is a connection of relationships. Being outside the physical world, God maintains contact with the physical world through us. That's their worldview," he says.
Recall that the "Philadelphia Experiment" was supposedly carried out at the base of the US Navy on October 28, 1943. During the experiment, the destroyer Eldridge allegedly disappeared, and then instantly moved in space for several tens of kilometers with a team of 181 people. Officially, the US Navy denies the experiment, but rumors about it are widespread.
Time travel is a dream of many people. Unfortunately, modern science has not yet reached this point. Or did it arrive? In this material you will find stories and testimonies of people who claim to have already traveled through time. And not just assert, but show evidence.
Andrew Karlsin.
In 2002, the world was shocked by the news of the arrest of an unusual exchange fraudster Andrew Karlsin. In just two weeks, he made 126 successful trades and increased his fortune from an initial $800 to an unimaginable $350 million. Naturally, such a dizzying success could not but interest the Market Commission valuable papers USA, and then the FBI.
Andrew Karlsin was arrested and charged with conspiring with managers of stock trading companies and obtaining insider information. It is a logical assumption that without having accurate knowledge of how stock quotes will fluctuate, it is impossible to carry out transactions so successfully. However, the defendant himself completely denied the existence of collusion. According to him, he came from the future - from 2256 and already had all the information about the state of the market.
Hakan Nordqvist.
The journey through time of an ordinary Swede named Hakan Nordqvist began extremely mundane and even boring. One day, when Hakan came home from work, he found that the entire floor in the kitchen in his house was flooded with water. Naturally, he immediately took out a tool and reached into the cabinet under the sink to fix the leak. Then, according to the traveler himself, something amazing began. The closet around him began to dissolve, as it were, turning into a kind of tunnel, at the end of which light dawned.
Realizing that he had no other options, the Swede crawled towards the light. He got out in the same place: from under the cabinet in his own kitchen, only 36 years later. At the same time, he even met himself at the age of 72. Contrary to all Hollywood stereotypes, there was no break in the time continuum. On the contrary, Hakan even managed to film his current self and his future self together. And for persuasiveness, they showed the same tattoos in the same place.
The people who foresaw the bombing of Hamburg.
very mysterious and very unusual story happened in 1932 with two employees of a German newspaper. Reporter J. Bernard Hutton and photographer Joachim Brandt traveled to the Hamburg shipyard on assignment for a few interviews for their new article. When the work was done and the journalists were about to leave, they suddenly heard the roar of aircraft engines. And looking up, they saw the sky literally filled with military aircraft. A fierce bombardment began. Brand managed to take a few photos before they managed to leave the place.
Imagine their surprise when, after developing the film, they did not find any traces of an airstrike on it. The editor accused the guys of drunkenness and refused to publish their article. After this story, Hutton quit and moved to London. It was there, in 1943, that he was surprised to find an article in a local newspaper about how the Royal Air Force had carried out a series of bombing raids on Hamburg. Below the article were photographs of the shipyard, which looked exactly as he and Brandt had seen it 11 years earlier.
Alfred Bilek.
On October 28, 1943, the so-called “Philadelphia experiment” was allegedly carried out, during which the destroyer Eldridge allegedly disappeared and then instantly appeared in another place tens of kilometers away with a team of 181 people. Presumably - because the US Navy still officially denies the very fact of this experiment. But there are a lot of rumors about him. It is believed that the entire crew of the destroyer died then, except for one person - Alfred Bilek. It was he who said that during the Philadelphia experiment in 1943 and the Montauk experiment in 1949, he managed to visit the future. Alfred claims that the organizers of these experiments then erased his memory, but over time it returns.
Bilek stated that he lived for six weeks in 2137 and two more years in the distant future - from 2749 to 2751. Being in 2137, he was surprised to find that only 300 million people lived on Earth at that time. When asked where the rest of the billions had gone, they couldn’t give him an exact answer. They only said that there was a third world war, during which disease, famine and the collapse of states swept the Earth. In addition, then there was an invasion of cannibal aliens that feed on human flesh. Fortunately, the invasion was repelled. In the 28th century, according to Bilek, the world has changed even more, the very appearance of a person has changed, people have become more elegant. There were wars in the past, there was no army or police on Earth. The attitude towards religion has changed significantly. It existed, but in a completely different form and a different understanding. People built huge flying cities with houses of 2000 floors.
Father of Pellegrino Ernetti.
Benedictine monk Father Pellegrino Ernetti is famous for claiming to have photographed Jesus Christ himself. According to him, he, together with the Nobel Prize winner in physics Enrico Fermi and the German scientist Wernher von Braun, invented the "chronovisor" - a device that could be tuned to events from the past. Ernetti claimed that he could personally observe the last supper and the crucifixion of Christ, as well as Napoleon and Cicero.
The team later admitted that they had to destroy the device for fear it might fall into the wrong hands. When the time travelers were criticized, Ernetti presented as evidence a photograph of Christ on the cross, allegedly taken by him with the help of a chronovisor. After the similarity of the provided photograph with the work of Cullo-Valera was noticed, Ernetti had to admit that the photograph was a fake. However, Ernetti continued to insist that the Chronovisor had actually been built.
Andrew Basiago.
In 2004, a Seattle lawyer named Andrew Basiago publicly stated that from the age of 7 to 12 he was a member of a secret US government program that dealt with teleportation and time travel. These works were the foundations on which the Montauk and Philadelphia Experiments were subsequently carried out. Although Basiago claims to have tested eight different time travel technologies, most of the time travel was based on technical documents allegedly found in the apartment of mechanical engineer genius Nikola Tesla after his death in January 1943.
The traveler claims that he went to the Ford Theater five or six times on the night of the assassination of President Lincoln. At the same time, in each subsequent time, he invariably met all his previous "copies" in this time. And each time influenced the subsequent course of history.
Unknown since the opening of the South Fork Bridge.
Perhaps one of the most famous public time travelers. Despite the fact that neither the name nor the identity of this person could not be established. But the photo, in which he, among other guests, is present at the opening of the South Fork bridge over the Shenandoah River in Arkansas, spread around the world. The photo shows a group of people watching the opening of this picturesque bridge. But one of them - clearly stands out from the crowd with its unusual appearance. He looks too modern, then no one dressed like that. He is taller than average, wears modern dark glasses, a varsity T-shirt, a modern sweater, a camera that looks more like a modern camera than a 1940 model. Of course, this and other photographs of this person have been carefully checked and analyzed. Experts said they found no signs of photomontage on them.
As evidence, the man described the events of the future, which are already beginning to come true today. Bilek assures that in eight centuries a socialist order will reign on the planet without any governments, and the significant climate changes observed at the moment will be catastrophic.
Moving to the future
On August 13, 1943, Al arrived on the naval destroyer DE 173, which mysteriously disappeared the same day. After the US military started the process of reducing the magnetization of the ship, Bilek lost consciousness and woke up in 2137, finding himself in the hospital of the future. There, doctors treated him for radiation damage caused either by the experiment, or time travel, or both of these factors combined. The doctors used some kind of light and vibration equipment, which had an amazing effect on the patient, making him completely viable again.
Al got most of his information about the future from watching television and the news in the hospital room. It turned out that global climate change, which began in 2025, has transformed our planet beyond recognition. The landforms and coastlines of Europe and America will be very different in the future from what we see now. The level of the World Ocean has risen so much that no one can even imagine this today, and the American state of Florida was completely flooded. Georgia became a coastal state and the Mississippi became an inland waterway. The Great Lakes joined together to form one colossal freshwater reservoir. The infrastructure of the United States was destroyed. The American and Canadian nations have essentially ceased to exist.
World War III is coming
In 2137, according to Bilek, a kind of local martial law will operate on the territory of present-day America, while the central government of the United States will no longer exist.
The earth's magnetic poles will begin to shift, but humanity will be able to create an artificial pole structure that will prevent catastrophes associated with the shift of the magnetic poles.
Thanks to cataclysms, the third world war and new diseases, the world's population will be reduced to three hundred million people, which is about twice as much as the current population of the Russian Federation.
In the future, it will become known that from 1954 to 2020, the American government took possession of alien technology and actively used it.
Already relatively soon, as the American assures, the third world war will begin, in which Russia and China will fight America and Europe. The latter will be defeated, America will be especially hard hit, and many large US cities will turn into ruins, due to which the States will de facto cease to exist. Nuclear weapons will be used in this war, but after it ends, innovative technologies will quickly remove excess radiation from the Earth.
The American claims that then he ended up in the year 2749, where he saw cities moving across the oceans. The world was controlled by a colossal computer, the intellectual capabilities of which exceeded those of all mankind combined. The development of telepathy began. Governments completely ceased to exist, and mankind, having reached a fundamentally new level of development, managed to live as a single nation. The structure of earthly society turned out to be socialist - each person had everything necessary for life.
Al Bilek does not know how he got into the future, much less how he managed to go back. The American's claims of time travel have been ridiculed by current scientists. However, the man is sure that in the future everything was exactly as he says. Can such a future be called rosy? Hard to say.
