In the TV series Star Trek, the smartly named Replicator created, upon demand, food and various useful objects for the crew of the starship NCC-1701. We're not quite there yet snack-wise, but we're definitely on our way. Back in 1983, Chuck Hull perfected a machine capable of creating objects using stereolithography. 3D printing is now available to anyone who can afford it.
