It was another rainy day in New York, Carrel was walking to the facility’s tissue culture laboratory to finish work on the invitro culturing of mammalian cells. It was at the lab entrance that he met with Burrows, who gave him a glance on the quick walk to his work station. The lab was among the latest developments of the university, as institutions sought increase biological research spending. “Have you completed the culture for the spleen and bone marrow tissue.” Burrows inquired. “I had a long night preparing those cultures, though my observations confirm that we can be able to maintain leucocytes in vitro” Carrels replied. “That a great step carrel we should certainly make a publication to the Societe de Biologie, we do not want to miss the next funding deadline.” Burrows replied. “That’s what I was thinking about, however, we need to create a convincing argument to secure sufficient funding. These findings are quite impressive, since we can convince the university that we can develop an immortal cell line. This discovery will make us the pioneers of human anti-aging. We will be remembered as the creators of mortals.” Implied Carell.
Following the discovery, the professors published seven papers to the Societe de Biologie, however all the publications were rejected over the assertion that there was an error in the interpretation of the results. The main limitation to the publication was the inability of the scientists to prove that the cells were initially cell dividing or if they were ultilizing the cultured media or dead cells during division. Despite their failures, the two scientists had just created a new field of science that would dominate scientific research for the following centuries, the quest for human immortality. Various models were developed over the years but even the best embryonic models of the 1970s would not survive independently past a thirty-week calendar.
The basis of the immortalized cell line is that the multicellular cells have developed a mutation that allows them to evade cellular senescence by undergoing continuous cell division. The concept of the immortalized cell was applied in cloning where it allowed for indefinite propagation of target cells. Following various animal trials, the first human cloning experiment was implemented in the year 2037. After various ethical battles, Alfred Redman a patient who lost both limbs during the 2025 U.S-Iran was attached with limbs derived from therapeutic cloning. However, the achievement was not highly celebrated as neural scientists were advancing in electrical based implants that were funded by the 2045 initiative. On 13 august 2041 Alfred Redman reported feeling pain in his lower limbs. The following X-ray scan revealed that Redman had developed a cancerous growth due to mutation initiating from the inserted limbs. Two Weeks later the tumor growths were so prominent that he could barely move from his bed. Redman passed on in 5 October 2041, and that spelled the decline for therapeutic clonal implants. In fact, a consensus was reached by the U.S where any genetic life extension strategies were banned from application. A loophole that the 2045 initiative utilized effectively.
When Dmitri devoted towards the creation of an immortal human by 2045. Many laughed at him deeming him as a spoilt rich man who feels in scientific fiction to accomplish his goals. I did not make millions by just sitting down and waiting for ideas. I created myself from scratch and even in the future many people will reap from what I have created today. The year 2030 was the year prophesied by Moore. During this year the last Bitcoin had been mines and cryptocurrency prices were off the roof. Not to say the scams that billions of earthlings had fallen into by buying virtually nothing for exorbitant prices. The suicide rate was already on the rise as the digital revolution yielded more bankruptcies than tycoons. There were very few positives to pick in the year except for the French who had just secured their third world cup. The Veteran “Julian the Ninja” as they called him was already being praised by international legends Messi and Ronaldo. Their coach Viera had was among the few managers that secured the cup as manager and player in history. However, despite these feats the world was at tension of the war that was about to emanate between the gulf and the western world. The world economy was deeply dependents on the Chinese workforce while the U.S dominated industrial production. The Chinese growth as an economic power was on the rise as most of the resources generated from third world countries was channeled towards paying the ever-increasing eastern debt. These are the factors that catalyst the need for intelligent machines. For the first time in history, the American billionaires came together to save the west from eastern domination.
