    [off topic?]

    There was a ‘The Flash’ TV show back in the early 1990s. One episode had an evil scientist from the 1950s freezing himself to escape justice. When he awakens in 1990 he looks and around and curses. “Where are my jetpacks? Where are the Moon Cities??”

      A Star Trek Strange New Worlds episode had two crew members meeting someone from the future:

      Ortegas: Hey, what’s the future like? Do you have jet packs or what?

      Chapel: We have jet packs now.

      Ortegas: I know, but, like, smaller jet packs.
