Have they been unable to identify all the genes that make us different from each other, and/or all the genes that make us the same as each other? Because if they've been able to identify all the genes that make us different from each other, (Even if they haven't been able to identify all the...

and it seems like you would have issues with women bottle-feeding babies instead of breast-feeding them as well.. based on what you said...

Never mind. I think you said "Keep in mind that the human genome has been sequenced, but they still haven't identified all the genes yet" I guess that means that they wouldn't be able to tell me what I was genetically?. I just wanted a blueprint of myself so I could look at it and go "That's...

So could I have that done (If I had the money etc. How long would it take, how long would it cost, etc?) since The human genome project has sequenced the entire human genome? So that I could know the genes that I have? (The ones that are the same as everyone else's and the ones that are...

Hey I was looking at Jurassic Park and they talk about Hoods (automated gene sequencers) and they say they're machines that work out the genetic code by themselves. I don't know if those exist or not but Hypothetically could somebody pay someone to give them their genetic code on paper? (or...

my sister and I said she could write it on that..

I just read that "Even aging can't be so easily cured by replacing someone's whole body: our brain seems to contain the circuits causing us to age, and you'd just see the replacement aging very rapidly. (The circuits aren't just electrical but chemical too. And this experiment has even...

that seems intriguing

I just read this and I wondered about it How are consciousness and energy related? We have three options: (1) Consciousness is a physical form of energy (even if it is very, very subtle energy); (2) Consciousness is a non-physical form of energy; (3) Consciousness is not any form of...

I guess my question is: If we colonize farther and farther into the rest of the Universe, won't it be easier (At least for the colonies in space) to learn more about it quicker? (Since we'll be able to launch spaceships and such from farther and farther away) What other ways can we learn...

What other things could we colonize though? I'm mostly just keeping the list/thread (in the first post) to put in my notebook. But when I made the thread I just wanted to find out what people thought about places we could colonize...I didn't make the thread to say what I thought should and...

oh here's a website with the other moons listed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassini-Huygens#New_moons_of_Saturn Anyways can somebody make a list of ways we can learn about the rest of the Universe without traveling there eg unmanned probes. I mean, I know we've been able to view planets...

I guess my question is.. Say you did colonize a lot of things in space (Planets, moons, etc) and these colonies were as advanced as the ones on Earth and could communicate back and forth between Earth, etc. (I was thinking that the more things you could colonize the better, hypothetically...

Could somebody tell me what the Cassisi-discovered moons of Saturn are? Why does that list not have them? Thanks
