The door of a dry-cleaner-size storefront in an industrial park in Wareham, Massachusetts, an hour south of Boston, might not look like a portal to the future of American manufacturing, but it is. This is the headquarters of Local Motors, the first open source car company to reach production. Step inside and the office reveals itself as a mind-blowing example of the power of micro-factories.

What do we do when we've maxed out our size potential? I've heard things about quantum computing, but is there a limit to this stuff? In 1000 years, how will we be progressing?

Really interesting stuff.
