If humans can't physically evolve to ever have wings, could it be scientifically possible to engineer wings?


I know it won't potentially happen anytime soon, of course, but knowing that technology is constantly advancing and humans are constantly adapting to new environments, could at some point a form of wing that is neurologically controlled without need for human input, that could have a power input that constantly charges be possible?


I know humans are weighty and don't have the same bone/muscle/organ structure as a bird or bug, not by any means, but given hang gliders already give the ability to glide and there's wing-suits, it's proven humans can sustain in the air for considerable amounts of time. I know it's also due to how high up the starting point of gliding is, and gliding is a much different thing to actual flight.


How many years, do you suppose, that it'd take in order for technology to advance to have a battery that could charge enough to generate lift for the human form, and is light enough to not add too much more weight to the wing/body?


Of course deeper science is needed, but I figure it's worth contemplating and talking about as opposed to being outright shut down, right? Anything's worth theorizing to potentially have such a thing put into practice, anyway. Plus, I haven't seen a whole lot of research going into such a technology anymore, which is sad because it's been a near life-long dream to have wings and fly as a winged human.


I know it's just a dream, but I also know it could be possible. Definitely not in my lifetime, though. Also, I love seeing some of the arguments and theories for such a thing.
