Life beyond Earth

Questions asked by many exobiologists include: Do aliens exist?, and What is their molecular biology? Most futuristic bioengineers have struggled for years to discover life beyond Earth's atmosphere. However, none have been successful. If humans can figure out the molecular biology of aliens then humans could replicate that biochemistry and transform humans into aliens and vici versa. This could aid in achieving the goal of making humans a multiplanetary species. Changing human genetics could make humans tolerate the heat on Venus as well as the radiation on Mars. Genetic engineering is the field which offers the most promise for humans to reside on other planets and make space tourism a reality. 

When we discover life beyond earth, alot of doors will be opened for interplanetary business and entrepreneurship. There will be need for a universal bank, trade center and monetary fund for the solar system as well as other galaxies. Medical Laboratories and biomedical engineers will have to be at the forefront of replicating the genetics of aliens and other extraterrestrial lifeforms in order to genetically engineer humans to survive on other planets and in other galaxies.

Medical Nanorobots editing DNA

Biological machines that are tiny enough to be swallowed could change the landscape of Laboratory Medicine. These nanorobots could take the diseased/abnormal genes from human DNA and replace those abnormal genes with normal or above normal genes. Such methods can be used to treat diseases or change the functions of cells to provide humans with supernatural powers. Richard Feynman spoke about swallowing the surgeon in his lecture on nanotech titled, "There is Plenty of Room at the Bottom". With the use of non biological intelligence, such as artificial neural networks, these tiny machines can learn how to do the work of surgeons from inside a human body. Medical nanorobots can be used in diagnostics and drug delivery. A medical nanobot could be programmed to analyze chemicals and cells inside the bloodstream and provide lab results to the Medical Technologist. This could revolutionize the entire scope of Laboratory Medicine and transform the role of a Medical Technologist into the role of a biomedical engineer. 

Editing genes using nanobots would make the process faster and make genetic engineering available and accessible to everyone. Everybody could have a computer inside their bloodstream that changes their DNA whenever they want. Biological computers could also be injected into the brain to create augmented realities and brain-machine interfaces through the use of nanorobotics. Biomedical engineers are at the forefront of producing these tiny surgeons and will change Medical Laboratories into nanorobot factories.
