Chapter 65: New News
As the progress bar reaches 100%,
Xiao Yi's voice also remembered in his mind:
"The data decoding is complete, the directory guide has been exported, and the information can be queried!"
Hearing such a voice,
Yang Meng, who was still struggling with the information technology problem of Rutan Star, put this matter in his mind for the time being.
He has been with Xiaoguang for a long time, and he can communicate slowly on information technology issues.
His current main concern is information from the earth.
As a human being, the earth is his foundation.
If something happens to the earth,
What kind of high-tech he got here here on Rutan Star didn't matter to him.
If humanity on Earth dies out, although he can continue to survive,
But like the leaves of a tree, his heart will eventually wither,
Therefore, after skillfully opening the directory guide,
The first thing Yang Meng did was to ask Xiao Yi to list the big news and events within the human race during this time.
Then I saw a very familiar news:
"It's ...... to be arguing about the artificial womb and the Tiki essence."
Yang Meng shook his head helplessly, he didn't have much interest in this news.
Because this matter has been debated since the breakthrough of human gene cloning technology, and there has been no unified opinion within human beings until now.
Yang Meng was still very concerned about this matter at the beginning.
After all, this is a major event related to the continuation of mankind,
But what he didn't expect was that human beings had been arguing for nearly a hundred years, and there was no result in the debate.
Even if this is a matter of great importance to mankind, such a long debate has drained his concern.
"It's a pity that it can't be completely banned like human cloning!"
Although he was not very interested, he still skimmed through the content of the news.
For human cloning technology, all forces on the earth are keeping an eye on it.
Even the cloning of some human organs for medical purposes requires extremely strict regulation, and illegal cloning is a felony.
And the reason for this situation is that in the development of cloning technology,
Humanity from top to bottom recognizes the dangers of human cloning.
Starting from a simple idea,
A person with this identity was eating hot pot and singing songs at home, when he suddenly broke into a group of people and kicked him aside.
The man looked up,
A man who is exactly like himself is sitting in his original place,
The man shouted, "Oh no! I'm a stand-in! ”
Then he disappeared into the world, and another clone took his place.
If cloning technology is rampant,
Not only will it be a threat to people with a certain status,
Even among ordinary people, it will cause harm that is difficult to contain, and produce more serious ethical and moral problems.
This is also one of the reasons why the various forces on the earth strictly manage the cloning technology.
The new reproductive mode based on gene technology is different from cloning technology.
As early as the time of Yang Meng's grandfather, human beings realized the experiment of mammalian and in vitro uterine reproduction.
By his time the technology was more mature and safer,
In the case of combined gene cloning technology, elderly parents, in the case of losing the conditions for childbearing, can regain children based on their own genetic data.
The emergence of this kind of technology has allowed some developed forces in human beings to see the hope of population growth again.
But soon the problem arose,
Artificial wombs and genetized sperm, although to a certain extent, have achieved the process of reproduction that is separated from human life,
But in reality, it's not that simple.
When a baby is born without motherhood, because it does not need to go through the pregnancy of October and does not require the involvement of parents,
This breeding method, with the passage of time, began to get out of control, and its harmfulness was gradually revealed.
For example, when an elderly parent dies prematurely, the baby loses its guardian and becomes an orphan.
There are also young parents, because there is no process of pregnancy in October, they do not have deep feelings for the baby, and abandon the baby at will like cats and dogs.
There are also people who steal genes, give birth to babies privately, and make a big fuss about inheritance.
There are even small companies that genetically edit and modify illegally born babies, and then brainwash them, and then use them as slaves when they grow up a little.
In short, with the passage of time, all kinds of problems have been exposed,
And the various forces on the earth can't reach a consensus on whether to ban in vitro reproduction.
After all, the artificial womb is essentially a normal reproductive process, but this process is separated from the human body.
This technology is not the kind of human cloning gene technology that is afraid of becoming a "stand-in".
What's more, this technology is a new hope for many families who are miserable without fertility,
It is also the key to the recovery of populations in some developed countries.
In short, the attitude of the whole human race towards this technology is in a state of ambivalence.
……
After reading the whole news, Yang Meng saw that the arguments and arguments above were as fierce as usual, and his heart was a lot lighter:
"The focus of human beings is still on this matter, and it seems that there is still nothing big about human beings!"
"So what's next......"
Yang Meng's eyes looked at the second news,
However, when he saw the news, his heart suddenly jumped:
"The pioneer astronaut who went to the Ross 128 system did not reply during the last cryogenic awakening phase!"
"What's going on?"
Yang Meng hurriedly checked the news,
The loss of contact with the pioneer astronaut has long caused an uproar on the earth,
The Pioneer Astronaut Program, as an important exploration program for the entire human race,
There are countless pairs of eyes staring from the public to the official,
Especially among the folk enthusiasts, although the general public, could not decipher the encrypted communication between the pioneer astronauts and the Earth,
But the communication between the pioneer astronauts and the ground was transmitted back and forth between light years.
This makes the signal of interstellar communication extremely powerful,
Even if the signal is clustered as much as possible, so that it travels in a narrow sector in the universe,
But at a distance of several light years,
or is it inevitable to diffuse into a large sector signal range,
In this case, some folk observation enthusiasts can observe the communication signals between the earth and the pioneer astronauts.
Even if the communication content cannot be obtained, it is possible to calculate the transmission direction and attenuation degree of the communication signal.
This is used to determine where the pioneer astronauts have been.
Therefore, once the pioneer astronaut loses contact, it is difficult to hide this information.
Looking at the content of the message, Yang Meng felt very complicated:
"It's finally happening!"
"In fact, from the moment we set off, we already had such preparations......
