Speculative retrospective from 2050

Vaccine success during the 2020 epidemic showed how technology development can be catalysed when there is the political will. Well, the US-China race to space makes Covid urgency look like snail pace. Every year witnessed an exponential increase across our nexus of genetic engineering, neural networks and neuroscience to ensure that space travellers could benefit from the genes of other organisms and species to survive the hazards of space. What was speculation 30 years ago is now ready to be deployed in 2050!

Our brochure (with design assistance from Katrina Peel) profiles:

• Entropometer measures the Conscious Level of hibernating space travellers to move them safely through different levels of consciousness.

• Hallucinator allows Mission Control to communicate with hibernating space travellers and simulate their Conscious Contents. When syncing brains, gradual cross fading is key.

• Embodimonitor allows Mission Control to monitor the Conscious Self of synthetic living skin worn by space travellers that protects them from radiation hazards of space.
