Are some things in life too "science fiction-y"?

I was just thinking of things like the "Large Hadron Collider", terraformation of planets, planet colonization, space travel, intergalactic alien lifeforms, etc. and sometimes I feel that these things only belong to science fiction, because, I jut have my doubts that any of these things will ever happen. Take for instance, the Large Hadron Collider which was supposed to find out about the origins of the Big Bang and the creation of the universe. At the same time, it was a million-in-one chance that we'd be sucked into a black hole by now, but luckily that didn't happen. I don't know what the results were, but at least i'm still alive to type this discussion. We were supposed to have flying cars by now, and we were supposed to be travelling the stars and meeting alien species from other planets, colonizing and terraforming other planets and expanding humanity. So how come we didn't reach that point, and if we did, why would it be after we're six feet under? It might be a number of reasons: 1. Humanity has only current technology which might be seen as "primitive" or inferior, and that we don't have the right technology to create such things. 2. Humanity is burning a hole in its pocket wasting billions, perhaps trillions, possibly a lot more of its money on weapons, wars and other things on ways to kill each other. A lot of that money could've been better spent on research and development on how to build better spaceships, space colonies, anything that can preserve and expand humanity through the galaxies. We can't be stuck on one little planet forever. 3. All we have are conspiracies, theories, fear, ignorance and paranoia holding us back. It's like as if almost all of manking chosen to take the blue pill and let them believe whatever what they want to believe. 4. If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. I mean, we don't have the technology or the resources to build a colony on Mars or even terraform it at all, even with these space agencies like NASA, and I highly doubt that we'll ever get there, not in the state the Earth is in now. There are other reasons that I could come up that we can't achieve these goals now, but it's hard to tell. The reason we still couldn't bring science fiction into reality is that we still got our heads deep in our butts and living in ignorance to realize the truth. We're all still asleep in our little planet, and we haven't even awakened. Can't humanity put aside its differences, one of the real causes of war, and find a way to make science fiction a reality? I mean, we already got the International Space Station, but that isn't enough. We still need more than that. We got to start finding ways of finding or creating technologies that let us boldly go where no one has gone before. Yes, that's a Star Trek reference, and i'm a trekkie, but that's beside the point. The point is, unless we can stop living in the negative delusions of life and start being creative and innovative to save humanity, we'll never move forward in life, and possible things will remain in the imaginations and the science fiction books. We're all eggs placed in one basket, and that is definitely a sign that something needs to be done, or otherwise we'll all be in severely hot water if something bad like if nuclear war, natural disasters or a comet or asteroid hits.
