I expect so. Apollo landed on the moon with much less of a computer than my ZX-80. And the Shuttle flew on computers less advanced than the 386.

The faster technology goes, the faster it can go, sorta like a jet engine. I expect to see more amazing things in my lifetime.

Just a few years ago, we weren't sure if there were exoplanets, and today, the count of them rises faster than I can keep track of.
