Now here is the other side of that - imagine how so many dictators and emperors became increasingly corrupt and twisted and evil? The good news is that they usually die after some maximum reign of 50 or 60 years. Imagine some evil bastard full of twisted and increasingly bitter sick intentions just kept living and living accumulating power, wealth and perfecting all manner of evil practice? Seriously - I'm all for advancing biotechnology and gene therapy and all this, but, wow.. we are surely asking for trouble too. We have ethical dilemmas we never even knew existed. Crazy world. |

The population would go sky high and we would run out of natural resources, which would likely kill the human race quicker than if we all accept aging.

No it would not as by then the Planet would burn up. All Food would grow for the rich on the Moonbase Walmart Food Dome. The 1000 crew will be Elites with many younger folks happy to be safe & alive on the International Moonbase and helping them get into there robot cases. |

Maybe in the far future if we ever master space travel and such, then space and natural resources might not be such a problem if we ever manage to colonise other planets.
Okay I'll stop since I sound as though I've played too much Mass Effect. |
