FarPoint Media Member’s DNA Sent to Space for the Future
Operation Immortality – Richard Garriott’s project to take a ‘backup of humanity’ into space – just announced that Stephen Hawking and his daughter Lucy will both be sending their DNA into space.
They join a list of other celebrities who are participating with the project including Stephen Colbert, Joe Ely, Olympic Gold Medalist Scott Johnson, American Gladiator Matt Morgan … oh, and our very own Tracy Hickman (writer, producer)…in sending their DNA for permanent storage on the International Space Station. Excerpts of Tracy’s writings will also be included on the storage device.
So, if the human race was to be mysteriously wiped out, then the new human race would be created from awesome comedians, Olympic athletes and kick-arse writers?
I’m beginning to understand the psychology of supervillains. *runs off to prepare the uber-bioweapon*
That or the cosmic radiation will enable them to resist the aliens that made a clone army of them, and they will conquer the universe. It’s sheer elegance in its simplisity.
hey maybe scotty can put them all back together.
HEHE
