Future technology will bring prosperity and more money for giant space guns, focusing on four key areas of futuristic warfare: close combat, combat in atmospheres or orbit, and interplanetary or interstellar conflicts. Interplanetary conflicts involve communication and fire exchange taking weeks or months, with the need for abundant and cheap space travel, energy resources, and advanced weaponry like fusion drives or antimatter to defend against attacks.
