00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:09.640
<v Speaker 1>I like cappuccino and fish. The sea chips from the

2
00:00:09.839 --> 00:00:14.560
<v Speaker 1>casino al Waiger won't be been good.

3
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:21.879
<v Speaker 2>I like Welcome back, so the Alien Space Ship Talk

4
00:00:21.920 --> 00:00:26.239
<v Speaker 2>Show podcast. And in case you're just joining us, you're

5
00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:30.440
<v Speaker 2>listening to the Alien Space Ship Talk Show podcast with

6
00:00:30.600 --> 00:00:32.840
<v Speaker 2>Amhikans and travels.

7
00:00:32.280 --> 00:00:36.799
<v Speaker 1>Used to survive and thrive. Actually, although the DNA is

8
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:41.039
<v Speaker 1>very very broken up, you know, being so old, it

9
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.280
<v Speaker 1>still has some use. So the fact that it's so

10
00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:49.119
<v Speaker 1>badly broken means they can't currently They will get there,

11
00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:54.840
<v Speaker 1>but they can't currently bring back fully one hundred extinct species.

12
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:58.359
<v Speaker 1>What they what they are doing. They can take that DNA.

13
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:03.200
<v Speaker 1>They've initially tested it on what they call wooly mice.

14
00:01:04.519 --> 00:01:08.359
<v Speaker 1>So these poor little mice have had this DNA the

15
00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:13.400
<v Speaker 1>elements which produce the fur and the wool on a mammoth.

16
00:01:14.480 --> 00:01:16.680
<v Speaker 1>They've injected this, or they put this in with the

17
00:01:16.799 --> 00:01:22.920
<v Speaker 1>DNA of a current day mouse and successfully produced what

18
00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:26.000
<v Speaker 1>they can really call a hybrid wooly mouse. And it

19
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:28.760
<v Speaker 1>shows that the DNA in the permafrost of all those

20
00:01:28.799 --> 00:01:32.439
<v Speaker 1>thousands of years ago still works on a little mouse.

21
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:36.439
<v Speaker 1>So it's born with fur and hair just like the elephants,

22
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:39.560
<v Speaker 1>and that's inspired this company to say, right, let's do

23
00:01:39.640 --> 00:01:43.799
<v Speaker 1>this to a wooly mammoth. So they get actually an

24
00:01:43.840 --> 00:01:48.280
<v Speaker 1>Asian elephant, current living Asian elephant, and they match its

25
00:01:48.359 --> 00:01:52.599
<v Speaker 1>DNA with some of this permafrost DNA on the specific

26
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:57.319
<v Speaker 1>bits of the wooly and fur items on the wooly mammoth,

27
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:01.359
<v Speaker 1>and they hope to I mean, they then put this

28
00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:06.200
<v Speaker 1>all into a carrier elephant, if you like, to carry

29
00:02:06.239 --> 00:02:10.879
<v Speaker 1>the fetus, and when it's born, all being well, in

30
00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:14.960
<v Speaker 1>twenty twenty eight, it will look like a complete wooly memmoth.

31
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:19.919
<v Speaker 1>So it'll be quite something to see if it is successful. Now,

32
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:26.199
<v Speaker 1>whether something goes wrong in the womb of the carrier telephant,

33
00:02:26.319 --> 00:02:28.759
<v Speaker 1>we don't know, but it certainly worked with the mice,

34
00:02:29.639 --> 00:02:32.319
<v Speaker 1>so it does look as if that's the next step

35
00:02:33.000 --> 00:02:36.039
<v Speaker 1>to and I'm sure it will make headline news around

36
00:02:36.080 --> 00:02:38.039
<v Speaker 1>the world in a couple of years time if this

37
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:41.599
<v Speaker 1>works out. Okay, but it does really then say, they're

38
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:45.639
<v Speaker 1>getting fairly close, one imagines to being able to bring

39
00:02:45.759 --> 00:02:50.560
<v Speaker 1>back completely, you know, an animal that's died out long ago.

40
00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:54.080
<v Speaker 1>And they're doing similar work on this with the Tasmanian

41
00:02:54.199 --> 00:02:57.199
<v Speaker 1>tiger which has died out a long time ago, and

42
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:01.400
<v Speaker 1>even the Dodo. The Dodo the bird which was on Mauritius,

43
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:04.520
<v Speaker 1>wasn't it. It was isolated on Mauritius and that died out.

44
00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:06.680
<v Speaker 1>But it looks like they're going to be able to

45
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:09.520
<v Speaker 1>bring back, initially what they will call a hybrid. It

46
00:03:09.560 --> 00:03:15.080
<v Speaker 1>will be part part modern day bird, part extinct Dodo

47
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:19.280
<v Speaker 1>tiger William ammoth. So it's quite exciting to think that

48
00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:24.080
<v Speaker 1>they are doing those things, whether there's a moral story

49
00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:27.000
<v Speaker 1>to that or element to it, which leads to my

50
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:31.400
<v Speaker 1>next question, what do you think about human clone cloning?

51
00:03:31.479 --> 00:03:35.560
<v Speaker 1>Now we know twins or triplets, if they're identical, they're

52
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.439
<v Speaker 1>clones of each other. Aren't they that two or three

53
00:03:38.639 --> 00:03:44.560
<v Speaker 1>or four of the five the same thing? But accepting

54
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:47.719
<v Speaker 1>that that's a part of nature, what's your view on

55
00:03:47.840 --> 00:03:52.039
<v Speaker 1>whether we should clone humans? And there may be advantages

56
00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:56.879
<v Speaker 1>to that if we can actually genetically do what they

57
00:03:56.919 --> 00:04:03.479
<v Speaker 1>cank gene editing, edit out illness gene which won't appear

58
00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:06.159
<v Speaker 1>in the clone, et cetera, et cetera. And of course

59
00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:09.199
<v Speaker 1>we can get into stem cell research, which is ongoing

60
00:04:09.280 --> 00:04:13.439
<v Speaker 1>and then it's utilized very much these days. But what

61
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:18.000
<v Speaker 1>is your opinion should a human being be cloned? And

62
00:04:18.040 --> 00:04:19.399
<v Speaker 1>do you think it could be done?

63
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:24.319
<v Speaker 2>For example, I think I think a human beings should

64
00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:24.839
<v Speaker 2>be cloned.

65
00:04:27.800 --> 00:04:31.160
<v Speaker 1>You could send along your your clone to do this.

66
00:04:32.040 --> 00:04:36.439
<v Speaker 1>I think it was used to do.

67
00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:41.560
<v Speaker 2>You know it's funny because conspiracy theorists they already think

68
00:04:41.759 --> 00:04:44.680
<v Speaker 2>that it's been done with celebrities. They think, well, that's

69
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:46.879
<v Speaker 2>not that's not. They going to take a shot break.
