By 2061 science and technology will meet all the essential requirements for interstellar space travel based on the embryo space colonization concept; the core element of this prediction is the cryopreservation of human embryos. The requirements include the ability to build an artificial womb, i.e. a machine that nurtures and grows a human embryo outside of a woman's body create androids based on advanced robotics that are capable of raising children and running on linguistic software that passes the Turing test construct a spaceship for slow interstellar travel using durable materials such as carbon nanotubes which will last for several 10,000 years select an exoplanet for human colonization based on data retrieved by telescope systems such as ESA's Darwin mission. My predictions are related to Kurzweil's 'Law of Accelerating Returns' and humanity's development towards intelligence explosion or a technological singularity.
