Technical Middle Ages?

Tell me, do you also think that our planet has stopped developing? What happens is no great discoveries or events. I will explain. In my opinion, over the past twenty years, only the Internet has turned out to be really new; everything else is just an evolutionary change. Mobile phones? Well, the same phone, only with a carry. Mini computers? So what's so surprising? It would be surprising if our computers would remain just as cumbersome. Digital photography? Mp3 players? Meanwhile, the fiction of the middle of the last century believed that in our time we would colonize the planets of the solar system and exploit human-like robots in all. Of course, science fiction writers are not the most scientific source, but I fully understand their optimism. Then rockets were launched with might and main, the astronauts landed on the moon, the first home computers appeared ... That is, scientific and technical progress stepped across the planet. So why is nothing new happening now? Or I just do not notice? Maybe there are some revolutionary changes in social terms?
