Changing Humans Might Be Easier Than Terraforming Mars
Episode 53
Published 2 months, 1 week ago
Description
Could genetically engineered humans be the key to colonizing Mars and exploring deep space? In this episode of Entropy Rising, we explore genetic engineering, transhumanism, human augmentation, Mars colonization, and the future of space travel to ask a strange question: instead of terraforming other planets, could we redesign humans to survive them?
Humans evolved for one very specific environment: Earth. Space exposes us to radiation, low gravity, extreme temperatures, toxic dust, and environments where we simply cannot breathe. But future advances in biotechnology and cybernetics could potentially change that.
