Two words.
IMMORTALITY DRIVE
THINK ABOUT IT!! IT WOULD WORK SO WELL WITH THIS IDEA!! IMMA EXCITED THINKING ABOUT IT.
Oh wait. Most of you probably don't know what the Immortality Drive is.
Ok. So the Drive is just that, a large memory device that was taken to the ISS (International Space Station) in a Soyuz spacecraft on October the 12th, 2008. Two days from now is it's anniversary, Anway, the important thing is what the drive contains.....The Immortality Drive contains fully digitized DNA sequences of a select group of humans.
Including, physicist Stephen Hawkings, comedian Stephen Colbert, Playboy model Jo Garcia, game designer Richard Garriott, fantasy authors Tracy Hickman and Laura Hickman, pro wrestler Matt Morgan, and athlete Lance Armstrong. It also contains a copy of Georges Secret Key to the Universe. Stephen (Hawkings) and his daughter's book.
So it was made to be like a "time capsule" in case a cataclysmic event happened on Earth, to give a remnant of humanity, in the hope of some beings in the universe to restore the human race.
I learnt of it from watching a doco called "Life after People" I reckon you guys should watch it, it's pretty damnation awesome.
