Stopping aging could revolutionize the human race

Stopping aging could revolutionize the human race

Why we are aging?

The fact is that the aging of people is very easy to explain. When we are aging our DNA or genomes are facing chemical and electromagnetic stress, which causes that the small parts of the genomes or base pairs are separated from the structure of the DNA, and that's why the DNA auto replication through the RNA molecule is not complete. And sooner or later the damages of the DNA are so big, that it cannot create cells, that can do their missions in the body, and that thing causes the limit to the lifetime.

The mammal cells can write RNA sequences in the DNA, and that thing helps them to fight against viruses. But the same process can also replace damaged DNA sequences by using RNA, and that process can stop the aging process.

The new observations are telling that the cells can write RNA in the DNA and that is giving an idea that the cells could fix the damages of the DNA. So the thing is that aging is one of the biggest things in humanity. Theoretically, aging is very easy to stop. If humans want to live forever, the DNA of the person would take to storage just after birth. Then that DNA can be replicated by using the PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) and then that DNA would inject into nanomachines.

Then the nanomachines must just remove the damaged DNA from the nucleus of the cell, and replace it by using the fresh DNA. That thing would increase the lifetime of humans very much. So maybe this kind of technology makes it possible to create persons, what is living forever. This kind of advanced biotechnology is maybe used in the future.

One of the reasons why aging is under research is the interstellar and other extremely long-term space missions.

The reason why this kind of thing is researched is the long-term space flights. If we want to make the journeys to other solar systems, or the edge of our solar system, we must create some other way to solve problems in spacecraft than just narcosis.

We cannot expect that some astronaut spends long part of life while sleeping, and the problem in hibernation is that the person is aging. One of the most interesting visions, that people can create is connecting the genomes, which are making tardigrades able to resist aging while hibernation in human cells. That thing would make people live longer, and give the astronauts protection against cosmic radiation.

In some versions to space will send the tardigrades, which are laying on the nutrient. When the spacecraft would be close enough to the target star, those bugs will inject by using the artificial virus, which is created by using the DNA of the astronauts. In that case, the nanomachines would remove the DNA of the tardigrades, and replace it by using the DNA of the astronaut. And the skills and other memories would be driven to the brains of that clone by using the electric stimulation of the cortex.

Of course, the body of the astronaut can store at a temperature that is near zero kelvin. At that temperature, the oscillation of the DNA molecule is ending, and then the astronaut will be wake up. In that process, the body temperature would return to normal very slowly.

And then the heart will reboot by using the heart-lung machine, which allows returning the body functions to the normal level.  The only problem is how to remove ice from cells without breaking them, and that requires an extremely slow melting process. The heart-lung machine would deny the brain damage.
