My son (who’s a real rocket scientist working on spacecraft for the Mars mission) talks about CRISPR all the time. He’s far over my head, but it sounds like pretty exciting technology.
Of course, I’ll probably die the day before they solve death from aging and cancer...
There was an interesting documentary that was crazy and a bit scary that wouldn’t have been possible without CRISPR.

I’m pretty sure the chinese are using CRISPR to make 9 foot Super Soldiers with night vision
