10. Star Wars - Hyperspace (AKA. Fast Than Light Travel).
Imagine, being able to travel through space and time at the speed of light, watching the stars smear across the cockpit window and disappear behind you as you enter a new uncharted solar system (with optional Wookie co-pilot). That's what Hyperspace did for the Rebel space fleet and the Millennium Falcon in Star Wars, allowing them to explore the galaxy and evade trouble within the blink of an eye. And on top of that, it just looked so cool too. Humans have already started to explore space and the concept of civilian space flights will soon be a reality, so just think of what we could do if we installed a hyperdrive in one of our spaceships and nipped off to another system for a couple of hours? Hyperspace would reduce the time it takes to get from Earth to Mars from nine months to a few seconds, and that can only be a good thing for the future of humanity. Plus, it really would look cool, wouldn't it? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AMtGw5pf3AQ
