The question arose last night, "where can we look for objective analysis of current science and technologies, so as to derive insights regarding 'what's next?' for each?"
Let me recommend Deutsche Welle's weekly show, Tomorrow Today.
Similar outlets include NPR's Science Friday (which has a strongly progressive bent), most "today" oriented shows on the History Channel (fascinations revolve around military and he-man type technologies), the magazines Popular Science and Popular Mechanics (the latter is at worst a bit hype-ish while the former tends strongly toward imagination-based forecasting ad pure scifi), to Technology Review (today's technologies), Scientific American (today's science question made understandable for the general science reader), and even the journals Nature, Science, PLOS, and so on (all are "today's science", which means publish-or-perish, not conclusive, subject to experimental flaws, leading research in a narrow field).
