What Will Humans Look Like in 100,000 Years? - 7 views

  •  
    "Pittsburgh-based visual artist Nickolay Lamm, who blogs at UK discount site MyVoucherCodes.co.uk, worked with a computational geneticist to illustrate three ways that humans' physical appearances might change to better suit their environments over the next 100,000 years. However, many of these assumptions don't rely on evolution, but rather zygotic genome engineering technology. Scientists in the future might be able to manipulate human features prior to birth."

    "Here at BA Central I see a lot of truly ridiculous conspiracy theories. Over the years there's been the Moon Hoax, various asteroids NASA was covering up that would hit the Earth (or wipe us out somehow via electricity), and of course the end of the Earth over and over and over again. Yet happily, we're still here. Yet sadly, so are these silly theories."
