Leaving aside those things that were already known to be real at the time it was filmed (people, the Moon, picture phones, Velcro, and so on) ... not all that much. The one prediction that's come (sort of) true is the space station in Earth orbit being visited by something resembling the Space Shuttle. However, that's not a particularly impressive prediction, since the movie was filmed in the late 1960s and a space station (Skylab) was actually launched in 1973. Even the resemblance to the Shuttle is no more than might be expected from having a basic understanding of engineering (the ability to land softly pretty much makes wings a requirement, and it doesn't look that much like the actual Shuttle). It's even true that it's possible for a private citizen to buy a ticket and travel to the International Space Station, though not as easily as the movie implies. Also, at the time of the movie, it was reasonable to put a Pan Am logo on the tail of the shuttle; that's certainly not true today.

What is K space in quantum mechanics?
K space refers to a space where things are in terms of momentum and frequency instead of position and time and the way you convert between real space and k-space (or Fourier space) is a mathematical transformation called the Fourier transform (and Inverse Fourier transform). This K-space also exists in classical physics. In quantum mechanics the space is made up of discrete values of K, whereas in classical physics K can take on a continuum of values.
