Those of us who grew up thinking the year 2000 would bring jetpacks and hover cars finally have something to look forward to: the world's first commercially available jetpack is set to go on sale in 2016. The P12, an updated version of the Martin Jetpack, could soon be available to buy for the low price of $150,000. Once the dream of a New Zealand university student named Glenn Martin, the pack flies up to 3,280 feet off the ground, and landings occur by parachute.
