      I doubt it! That would change everything wouldn’t it! Life would become a very different thing indeed.

      I don’t think this will be possible. Perhaps you the DNA of someone who died was frozen and then cloned into living cells… This would make a whole new person though – the DNA would be the same but the environment would be completely different.

      It may one day be possible, but we will have to deal with the ethical implications, similar to human cloning. We will first try and make sure we can keep the living people healthy.
