This article is probably most notable for using the term Alpha Generation to reference the children born between 2010-2025. According to the author, they "perceive this technology as more of a part of routine rather than an advancement or an exception, which of course, gives us more room for exploration and further discovery." Maybe. But it will have to be a significant improvement over using a hololens in space, as the 2015 project Sidekick did. I'm not discounting augmented reality. But I think it needs a conceptual leap forward before becoming mainstream.
