Chapter 9. Cloning is no longer a secret


It is no secret that throughout human history, information and knowledge have been the most important weapon and value. They have been killed for them, hidden, paid for, organized alliances and waged wars.

Believe me, the level of science that you know, even though it is overwhelming for some, is already yesterday's day for secret groups (and these can be outwardly official associations), and sometimes the Stone Age. Or almost. For example, what would you say if I told you about the possibility of creating a copy of a living being at a time when only such developments were carried out in closed laboratories?

It all started when Theodore Schwann formulated the cell theory. And it was as early as 1838-1839. Then Rudolf Virchow, in 1855, supplemented it with the crucial statement: "every cell is derived from another cell." Hans Dreischau in 1892 divided a four-cell sea urchin embryo into separate cells. Each of the divided cells grew into a normal larva. In 1901, Hans Spiman successfully performed similar experiments on frog embryos consisting of 16 blastomeres cells. In the 40s of the XX century, cloning experiments began in the USSR. In 1943, the first successful fertilization of an egg cell in a test tube was reported in the journal Science. In 1944, John Rocke and Miriam Menkin (USA) realized the first in vitro fertilization of human oocytes.

And then the pace didn't slow down.

In 1977, scientists at Oxford University became interested in cloning organisms, and under the guidance of Professor of Zoology J. Gerdon, more than 50 frogs were produced by cloning. In 1984, the whole world was shocked by the news that a cloned lamb was born in the laboratory of Steen Willadsen from the embryonic cells of an immature sheep.

I won't go on, you will find a lot of information on this topic yourself and even that secret laboratories are training armies of cloned soldiers. Of course we will smile, but it's not really funny.

Cloning is no longer a secret. If it is classified, and logically it is, all secret things are revealed; information is already being revealed about how to download your digital copy through your brain and put your image into a clone. You will say: nonsense and fantasy. And I will answer you: you will live and work in this system. If even a hundred years ago you were explained the possibilities of your smartphone, you would not only be shocked, no, you wouldn't even be able to understand what they are talking about.

So now let's go back a little bit and repeat a little bit, already understanding better what we are talking about. I wrote that the book is not for scientific education, but for the general level of knowledge.

So, let's begin. I will tell you once again about such a topic as the theory of multiworld interpretation. Don't ask me what, why and why yet. I told you from the beginning – you should believe me. For you little by little my story will be put together like pieces of mosaic into a picture. Consider that you yourself pick up the puzzles to understand the overall meaning. Let's move on. Let's say, for example, we are living in ancient Egypt at the time of the completion of the construction of the pyramid of Cheops. Tell me, was it a monumental event? Absolutely. Grandiose, comparable to the first human flight into space. What would you have said at the time if someone had asked you to explain the existence of molecules or the structure of the solar system? You would have thought it was magic, devilry and fantasy. So now in our world quite serious scientists, and for a long time already, consider the existence of parallel worlds. Yes, yes, in case you've forgotten, I've already told you about it. So let's hear again what science says about it.
