Infinite Life: Trapped in a lifetime

"...After your body has recovered for a period of time, the research team will arrange for you to enter hibernation again. This time it will be for a longer period of time. They will not wake you up until there is a cure for ALS. "

After a person wakes up from hibernation, it usually takes several days for the body to fully return to its normal state.

While here, Mo Dao also met the hibernating volunteers again.

"Thank you, thank you Academician Mo, and all the researchers in the human hibernation technology research team..."

The volunteer's voice was still hoarse, and he said gratefully to Modao and the other researchers who came with Modao.

Gratitude is sincere,

Some discussions or debates about hibernation technology in the outside world at the moment have nothing to do with him.

Academician Mo and the entire research team did give him a chance to continue living.

"You don't need to thank us. You also helped us complete the first clinical trial. After the hibernation project is over, I may also take some time to conduct some research on the mechanism of ALS."

Mo Dao responded to the volunteer again.

"Thank you...thank you, Academician Mo."

…

Five days after the clinical trial is first completed,

The hibernating volunteer, who met his family again, chose to continue entering human hibernation.

And the outside world,

During this period, the results of the first clinical trial of the human hibernation project were not immediately reported.

But these have no impact on Mo Dao or the entire research team.

During the period after the first clinical trial is completed,

The entire research team became a little busy again, collecting data throughout the clinical trial process.

A more in-depth study was conducted on the data from this clinical trial.

Although a clinical trial is far from reflecting all uses of 545 hibernating substances,

But it can also give the entire research team more knowledge about current hibernation technology.

On the fifth day of the first clinical trial,

The human hibernation project research team submitted a specific report on the first clinical trial of the human hibernation project.

The next morning,

The old leader who had met Mo Dao many times,

Then he went to the School of Life Sciences of Capital University and met with Mo Dao.

…

"...Academician Mo, do the results of the current clinical trials confirm that human hibernation technology has practical value?"

Regarding the technology of human hibernation and some things related to this technology,

The above must refer to Mo Dao's opinion.

In a small conference room, after a few simple greetings,

The visiting senior leaders did not go around the bush and asked some key questions directly.

These problems will inevitably affect the subsequent application of human hibernation technology to a great extent, and even the impact of the application of human hibernation technology on the world and history.

"Based on current clinical trials, human hibernation technology can be applied to humans, and it is basically certain that this kind of 'human hibernation' can be repeated in other people."

Mo Dao looked at the old leader and gave a simple and direct answer.

The old leader was silent for a while after hearing Mo Dao's answer.

Then he directly explained his doubts to Mo Dao,

"...Academician Mo, to be honest, we have some doubts about the widespread application of human hibernation technology."

"At present, the development of our science and technology has allowed our external exploration to basically remain based on the exploration of the moon and some nearby planets. In other words, the human hibernation technology currently born does not have the necessary application scenarios."

For officials, human hibernation technology is also a great technology.

Otherwise, we would not have continued to support Mo Dao’s research.

The only problem is,

This technology was born a little too early, which makes people have some worries about happiness.

"...We are a little worried that after the birth of human hibernation technology is confirmed, more people will have a tendency to 'escaping from the world'. After all, even the best present is difficult to compare with the imagined future."

"...Go to the future. Academician Mo, to be honest, sometimes I feel a little unable to resist this expectation when I think about it. What will the world be like in twenty or fifty years?"

"But if a large number of people avoid the world, what will happen now? If there is no present, where will the future be?"

"Especially, if this idea of ​​escaping from the world forms a wave, and then most people choose to enter hibernation and go to the future, then the few remaining people will not be able to do anything even if they persist."

"...A few days ago, I had a nightmare. In the dream, everyone in the world had entered hibernation, and the whole world was as quiet as death."

"...Academician Mo, you are an authority in this field. We would like to know your thoughts on this matter and the next arrangements for human hibernation technology."

The old leader also explained his intention straightforwardly.

After hearing this, Mo Dao paused.

This matter,

In fact, it has nothing to do with Mo Dao.

Whether to promote human hibernation technology and how to regulate the use of human hibernation technology?

Even after Mo Dao's life ended, someone came and destroyed the human hibernation technology he left behind.

It actually has nothing to do with him.

What he wanted was not to promote human hibernation technology on a large scale.

He wants to use human hibernation technology, but not in this life.

All he wants is the human hibernation technology itself.

"As for your concerns, I am not sure whether it happened. However, the current hibernation technology itself is not that perfect."

"There is no way to do it. After the human body enters hibernation, it can last until the end of the world."

Mo Dao did not answer the old leader's concerns, but truthfully explained some information about hibernation technology.

The old leader sat upright again and did not speak. He just listened intently to what Mo Dao said.

"Limited by the nature of the hibernating material itself, there is a limit to the time of a single hibernation."

"This limit time is still uncertain. Based on current data, it is highly likely to be within fifty years. There may be some differences between individuals."

"Secondly, there is a limit to the total number of hibernations."

"The human body cannot enter hibernation repeatedly. After each hibernation, the human body must be damaged to a certain extent, which not only affects the original life span of the hibernator, but also limits the number of hibernations."

"Perhaps after hibernating for several long periods of time, the hibernator may not be able to wake up."

"Finally, in the hibernation state, only the aging rate becomes relatively slow, which does not mean that the body's age is completely frozen. In other words, even if a person can hibernate for a long time and for a large number of times,

When hibernation continues for too long, it is still possible to age and die. "

Mo Dao's words made the old leader relax.

Mo Dao's words mean that the current hibernation technology still has flaws.

However, the flaws at this stage, or the imperfect technology, are actually a good thing.

This kind of imperfection will definitely discourage a large number of people from escaping from the world.

At the same time, if hibernation technology only allows hibernators to live intermittently for a similarly limited period of time.

The impact on the entire society may be severe, but it does not lead to a pessimistic possibility for human civilization.

At most, it's equivalent to each living a little longer.

Slow down the pace of change in the entire era.

But in a broader perspective, this is nothing.

If you don't know,

Although he did not answer the old leader’s doubts,

But it does solve this problem objectively.
