“Chickens produced on the Moon and on Mars from artificial eggs?”
Yes and deep space in the asteroid belt, and after thousands of years frozen at 4K when the interstellar ark ship magnetic sail brakes into orbit around a star hundreds of light years away. The AI starts incubating all sorts of life in artificial eggs and science is a couple years away from artificial mammalian wombs. They got close with a steep it was not allowed to come to term for ethical and legal reasons but China will succeed soon enough since they don’t have silly western qualms. We could see humans grown in artificial wombs , raised by intelligent AI out to 100 light years it’s only 500 earth years to 100LY at an achievable 0.2C via magnetic plasma sails for out bound and inbound maneuvers. All tech we have or very be nearly have.
Also a chicken can only lay one egg per day. We can clone thousands of embryos from a single prized chicken cells and implant them in unlimited numbers in these artificial eggs it removes the broiler hen as the bottleneck in chick production volumes. Need a million chickens sure clone a million embryos in huge batches then implant them in reusable artificial eggs in batches of how many will your incubator racks hold.
This is not just a curiosity it fundamentally changes how avians are breed. Do not underestimate the this technology it is a fundamental step forwards. The artificial womb will remove the 9 month steer bottle neck on the first successful try. Cows, goats, sheep, IVF humans for sure. Woman cannot carry to term or aged out, get an egg some sperm and IVF into a artificial womb. Surrogate mothers are $50K or more a tank with hoses and AI to watch over it is single digit caper&opex per gestation cycle. Again the artificial womb will fundamentally change the world.
It’s not if, how soon. This is the 21st century it will be nothing like the last one. An army of boffins myself included are working endless to ensure it is nothing like last century.
Thanks.
