Yet. Or, as the good science communicators like to say, "as far as we know / as far as our current understanding goes". Looking back in history, almost everything we're taking for granted today was both dreamed by the pas era's "futurists" and deemed impossible by their skeptics. Only time (hah!) will tell, I guess.
