TECHNOLOGY
In a few decades, we might even see human beings travel to Mars. NASA has pledged to return to the moon by 2018 and then move on to Mars as soon as they have the technology. The European Space Agency has also began making plans for Mars exploration with their Aurora program.

THE INTERNET
Technically, what distinguishes the Internet is its use of a set of protocols called TCP/IP (for Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol). Two recent adaptations of Internet technology, the intranet and the extranet , also make use of the TCP/IP protocol. The most widely used part of the Internet is the World Wide Web (often abbreviated "WWW" or called "the Web"). Using the Web, you have access to millions of pages of information. Web browsing is done with a Web browser , the most popular of which are Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator. The appearance of a particular Web site may vary slightly depending on the browser you use. Also, later versions of a particular browser are able to render more "bells and whistles" such as animation, virtual reality, sound, and music files, than earlier versions.
