The Space Age began with the launch of Sputnik 1 in 1957, and later the launch of crewed missions to the moon in the 1960s. Organized efforts to search for extraterrestrial intelligence have used radio telescopes to detect signs of technology use, or technosignatures, given off by alien civilizations. In medicine, new technologies were developed for diagnosis , treatment , and research .
- Innovations continued through the Middle Ages with the introduction of silk production , the horse collar, and horseshoes.
- Each student should be able to develop good UI & UX design to support IS Development.
- Political science experts predict that this could lead to a rise in extremism, while others see it as an opportunity to usher in a post-scarcity economy.
- These technological advances led to significant developments in medicine, chemistry, physics, and engineering.

Technology has advanced human society for as long as our species has been in existence. Human life is full of problems that need solving, and technology provides innovative solutions to those problems that reduce effort and increase efficiency. Technology is the use of scientific knowledge for practical purposes that benefit our everyday lives, as well as the industries created by humans. Mechanical technology includes the use of machines to do work, and utilizes many simple machines such as wheels, levers, pulleys, and even cogs and gears that all function together to accomplish a task.
The discovery of fire was described by Charles Darwin as “possibly the greatest ever made by man.” Archeological, dietary, and social evidence point to “continuous fire-use” at least 1.5 Mya. Fire, fueled with wood and charcoal, allowed early humans to cook their food to increase its digestibility, improving its nutrient value and broadening the number of foods that could be eaten. The cooking hypothesis proposes that the ability to cook promoted an increase in hominid brain size, though some researchers find the evidence inconclusive. Archeological evidence of hearths was dated to 790 kya; researchers believe this is likely to have intensified human socialization and may have contributed to the emergence of language. At AUT we know that an influential lecturer or a memorable educational experience can open up new possibilities.
Modern research has turned to investigate the internet’s downsides, including disinformation, polarization, hate speech, and propaganda. Artificial intelligence technology’s impact on society is widely debated. Many argue that AI improves the quality of everyday life by doing routine and even complicated tasks better than humans can, making life simpler, safer, and more efficient. Others argue AI poses dangerous privacy risks, exacerbates racism by standardizing people, and costs workers their jobs leading to greater unemployment.
