Future Living 2025 was a documentary that aired on the (Discovery) Science Channel in 2002[1][2], predicting technology in the year 2025. A description on an archived page on science.discovery.com[3] provides one of the only proofs of its existence, being part of the "Digital Domain" anthology series:

"Future Living - Discover what life will be like in the year 2025. Advanced technology will enable the creation of iris scanning security systems and refrigerators that reorder cartons of milk when the old ones expire. Meet the Robosapien who is more human than machine."

The video was once reuploaded to YouTube in five parts, with links being posted on the TechEBlog[4] and SgForums[5] in 2007, but the YouTube account that had uploaded them had been terminated for several years.

The documentary used this exact clip of the Japanese space tourism rocket concept "Kankoh-maru," albeit with different music.
