So when are we?Its like the first submarines, which had been just small boats, that can sink for a while.
17th, 18th century?
19th more likely - we have dreams about spacecraft, we have some chemical puffers to reach low orbit, and we made some PR stunts - Moon and ISS.
Hopefully, just like technology accumulated into 20th century to make a practical submarine, it would also accumulate over the coming centuries to make a practical spacecraft.
