Star trek is currently what our path is. We have scientists successfully designing warp ships, we have tricorder in development, and phasers are getting close to being finished. Hell, scientists figured out how to turn energy into matter without any going to waste.

We do not have "scientists successfully designing warp ships", we have some nice 3D models of someone's idea of what a warp-capable ship might look like. We have not come anywhere near close to solving the most basic problems of getting such a technology to function, and the core principals themselves have yet to be proven.

We do not have "phasers", we have directed energy weapons that have been increasingly named after Star Trek's fictional weapon because, well, it's kinda cute. It is not an official naming convention and bears no resemblance to the supposed technology in ST.
