Ok, so let's just ignore the scenario completely. You have this list of sci-fi things, and you can make one of them a reality. Which do you choose?
1: Terraforming planets. We can have the technology to make outside worlds inhabitable. But with space travel as it is now, moving there is practically a one-way trip.
2: Teleportation Technology It's completely safe unless someone purposefully screws it up. It's been spread around so you're able to go anywhere on Earth if there's a proper landing area.
3: Androids/Cyborgs Yes, there's the chance of the robot apocalypse, but having all this cool stuff makes it worth it, doesn't it?
4: Biological Enhancements Think the Super Soldier Serum, or Adam without the nasty side effects. If you get it legally, that is...
5: Flying Cars/Jetpacks Yes, traffic accidents will become even worse, but nothing say "Welcome to the Future!" than flying cars.
6: The Futuristic Fuel Source It won't actually MAKE the future technology, but today's technology will certainly run better. It's the "energy crisis" solved in a snap. Plus, further tech can be made eventually.
7: Faster-Than-Light Travel It'd be expensive, and we don't know where to go, but we have an easy way to move faster than light. And that's awesome.
8 (becuase that's all I can manage to fit in polls): Other If you can think of something else. Try and keep it broad, like Laser Weaponry or Clones or Holograms.
