Maybe the advanced genetics and nanotechnology make the crew of interstellar flight immortal.

If we think carefully about the possibility that some civilization conquer the universe. Maybe in the distant future, we are that civilization.  There is a possibility that in a couple of hundreds of years in the future the first spacecraft will travel to Alpha Centauri. 

We must realize that civilization can travel hundreds or even thousands of years between the solar systems. If those creatures use giant artificial worlds called O'Neill cylinders. In those cylinders, rotational movement forms the artificial gravitation. 

The major problem of interstellar flight the enormous distances in the universe. If faster-than-light travel would not successful there is the possibility to use slow spacecraft for that kind of journey. There is the possibility that the advanced bio- and nanotechnology make the crew of that craft immortal. 

That means the nanorobots could fix the DNA of the crewmembers. When the DNA is damaged the nanorobot could make a copy of the original DNA. And then the nanomachine just replaces the old DNA by using new DNA where those damages are repaired. 

If the population of the crew is high enough that thing denies the degeneration. That hypothetical civilization could send a fleet of O'Neill cylinders. And each of those cylinders would be one population. In that model, the crew of each of the craft would degenerate. 

If those creatures would live in a zero-gravitational environment for their entire life their muscles would be so weak that they cannot be dangerous. That means the O'Neill cylinder's rotation movement stopped in that period.

There is one thing that became to my mind about "alien abductions"


Could those alien abductions made for installing the microchip or so-called record machine in the human nervous system. In that case, somebody would want to record things that person sees and senses by using those microchips. And when the person dies the stealth-craft would collect those microchips and download their information to the computers. 

This idea is from the idea that if researchers could decode the animal's EEG signals they could implant a microchip into the animal's brains. Then that microchip records everything that animal sees and feels. This could be a good way to collect data from the animal's life without disturbing their everyday actions. 


******************************************************************


But when the fleet of those crafts will come to target solar systems the population will be interconnected. And that thing allows the creation of the "super population" by using pure line hybridization. 

Another version is that our hypothetical civilization uses cloned embryos that are frozen in zero kelvin degrees. When the craft is closing its target those embryos will be grown in an artificial womb. The artificial womb is the container where cloned tissue would feed the embryo and fetus. Then the system transfers necessary data to their brains by using the electric stimulation that is driven through the cortex. 

Or maybe those travelers use powerful nanotechnology that allows them to repair their genetic material. So that the hypothetical crew will be immortal. In that model, nanomachines will repair the damaged DNA of that crew. 

Why we are making models of the hypothetical interstellar civilizations? The reason is simple. Maybe someday we are the civilization that travels in the universe. If we think that we exist when the Sun uses its final energy source and explodes as nova those people must leave this solar system. And if our descendants would travel to other solar systems they must collect all possible information about those targeted solar systems. 

There is lots of time for the first interstellar journeys. But maybe those things are possible after a couple of hundreds of years. Our society must change very much. And for those journeys is needed enormous technology and lots of work. And maybe we are the more intelligent aliens who meet primitive civilization in the Milky Way.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
