Wandering Spaceship in Deep Space Chapter 150: Human past events

Next, in this tumult, another biologist, Professor Wei Jiahui, submitted his own bill, the "Human Genetic Modification Act"!

There is no way for human science and technology to advance further. There are many factors, not just the legendary "great desert" conjecture. In fact, there is a bigger reason: human beings... are too stupid!

Ordinary people’s intelligence, learning a little calculus, has reached the upper limit. Let them learn more difficult things, they have begun to be unable to do so. But calculus is just an ordinary tool for exploring nature, and it is not much different from 1+1 in the eyes of scientists.

Limited to intellectual factors, human memory is limited, and things that can be learned are also quite limited.

Modern modern subjects have been extremely specialized. Even a genius like Zhang Yuan can't suddenly engage in biological research from the aspect of space machinery.

But relying on a few top talents alone is not enough to promote the development of the full text.

"So, through gene editing, we can comprehensively improve the intelligence of the next generation of humans and cultivate more and more geniuses!"

"If it can cooperate with the public welfare system, it will undoubtedly be a great innovation!"

"Can you imagine the world of mass-manufacturing geniuses?"

This proposal...

Zhang Yuan frowned, he didn't know what to say. Maybe it was because I accepted a lot of things this time, and I felt a little numb.

After a while, someone came forward and questioned: "But, Mr. Wei, how should this be done? Everyone wants a higher intelligence, this is true...but..."

"Does it need to conduct human experiments again and again? As a doctor of biology, I have the right to refuse such cruel and inhumane biological experiments."

The people below do not want to discuss "social public support". Gene editing has undoubtedly touched the bottom line of science.

What should I do if there is an error in gene editing and some mutations occur?

Destroy the whole person?

A biologist raised his hand to speak: "Professor Wei, we have not yet fully understood genes. There are thousands of genes related to intelligence. If every gene has 2 equivalent genes, The number of the entire combination is 2 to the thousandth power!"

"This number is countless times more than the atoms in the entire universe!"

"How do you decipher the best combination of intelligence? Even the fastest computer cannot accomplish this task."

This is an almost unsolvable problem. Even if the genetic data of all human beings are analyzed, the comparison of 2 to the thousandth power is only a drop in the ocean.

What's more, there are more than two types of a gene. For example, blood type genes. In addition to ABO blood types, human blood types also have other blood types, such as Rh, MN, and Xg.

Is blood type related to intelligence?

Of course it does! Even if there is no direct connection, there is a certain indirect connection.

Adding to the fact that humans have 46 pairs of chromosomes, genes are also paired. Therefore, the genetic combination of intelligence will only be much larger than 2 to the thousandth power!

But then, something unexpected happened. Professor Wei was silent for a while and sent a message to the big screen: "Please don’t worry about this. We have found several sets of comparative comparisons. Good combination of genes."

Wow!

It's just breaking the news!

There was another riot in the venue.

Zhang Yuan looked at the various materials on the screen, his heartbeat speeded up rapidly, which seemed to...have something to do with his suddenly elevated intelligence.

Humankind’s pursuit of intelligence has existed since ancient times. The social transition through intelligence is known as the most "stable" and "convincing" way of social transition.

Especially in the gray age of lack of energy, oil was depleted, nuclear fusion flames did not appear for a long time, and the huge survival crisis led to the occurrence of two world wars!

People yearn for...the appearance of scientific giants.

Under that background, the human genetic modification project finally broke the traditional taboo and happened in private.

The first genetic engineering called the "HIA Genome" sequence. This set of genetic sequences was figured out by investigating inbreeding populations-the probability of mental retardation and genius will increase.

There is a small probability that a genius will be born, and a high probability that a group of idiots with low IQ will be born.

It is difficult for scientists to explain why this is the case. The genetic code has not been deciphered, and anything can happen.

In short, the "HIA Genome" sequence will lead to the extreme development of human intelligence.

The second genome is called the "BIA genome".

A gene combination found by investigating people with high IQ.

However, because the genes of people with high IQs are too complicated, there is no combination that is particularly convergent. Therefore, this genome sequence is very, very large, and it is not working well at times.

In general, children born with the "BIA genome" will have an increase in intelligence of 6%-10% above the average. The safety is relatively high, and under normal circumstances there will be no mental retardation.

If it can be used on a large scale, an increase of 6%-10% is already an amazing number!

The third genetic project is called the "Anti-Eye Man" project.

This plan attempts to break the human inverted retina to the right, to directly liberate the brain's computing power.

The structure of human eyes is exquisite but not perfect. The main reason is that the retina has a large number of defects.

The human retina is attached upside down, and only the top of the photoreceptor cell is in loose contact with the pigment cell layer between the retina and the eyeball wall, so it is easy to fall off.

The object is imaged on the retina, just like the image of a small hole, upside down~IndoMTL.com~ It is only because the brain processes it that humans feel that the world is positive.

This rubbish-like retinal structure not only makes the eyes very fragile, but also takes up a lot of computing power in the brain when restoring visual images.

At the time, mad scientists had such a guess that if we used some of the octopus's eye genes to "align" the human retina, all problems would be solved. Maybe, by liberating this part of the brain's computing power, humans can become smarter.

Of course, for the study of genes, human beings were still at a very naive stage at that time, and any genetic change would bring about a series of chain reactions.

The three plans have success and failure.

"HIA Genome" has brought great results!

The birth of a famous scientific giant directly promoted the entire era.

"BIA Genome" is only useful when there are more people. Even in the war years, the relevant departments did not dare to clone humans on a large scale.

But the "Anti-Eye Man" project did not succeed. Unfortunately, the brain has no way to recognize the biological signals brought by the new eyes. These poor "experiments" went blind directly, and they spent their entire lives in the dark...

There are only a few words on the information, it is difficult to describe exactly what happened at that time, but it can be vaguely imagined.

The stormy sea directly appeared in Zhang Yuan's heart!

Cold sweat came out from behind little by little, soaking the whole clothes...

This kind of thing that even he can't accept has happened in history...

Even, the blood of "HIA Genome" may be flowing in him!

It's hard to imagine.

Sighed deeply.

Humans have never been a morally high species, never have they been.

When the existential crisis is truly born, what is it?
