Period 2: The Catch Up

Disclosure and access (late 2020s & 2030s) ‍

DATELINE 2035 – For at least the last 100 years some of the most significant breakthroughs, inventions, and discoveries have been held back from public knowledge in the interests of national security. These potential innovations could have made society more free and self-determining, except that they also threatened the hegemony of the powers that be (or were).

But it was impossible to keep a lid on these breakthroughs indefinitely, and following the ongoing war for global control in which the old powers had to give way, there is now an ongoing process of disclosure of knowledge, science, and technology which is transforming society at every level.

The effect is to accelerate society to where it would have been by now if the breakthroughs had not been withheld. This is a profound future shock that reverberates for decades. It is also a significant challenge. We are jolted from despondency to exhilaration. We find ourselves responsible for determining the best use of these new powers for humanity as a whole. Above all we have to keep our balance as we rise to the task and make the most of this extraordinary opportunity.

Disclosure is happening primarily in the areas of health, energy, transport, spirit, and ‘exo-cultural’ (interstellar) contact. (More details on the ‘Transformations’ pages.)
