In the evolving field of advanced biopreservation technologies, the development of suspended animation (SA) is inspired by real-world challenges. In the context of space exploration, SA is seen as a solution to enable humans to undertake missions far beyond low Earth orbit, including routine travel to other planets in our solar system and beyond. While work on the socio-ethical and legal implications (ELSI) of space exploration continues to evolve, NASA has committed to make ethics a priority issue, making this a fruitful field for further examination.
在先进生物保存技术不断发展的领域中,假死技术(SA)的发展受到现实世界挑战的启发。在太空探索的背景下,假死技术被视为一种解决方案,使人类能够执行远超出近地轨道的任务,包括前往太阳系内其他行星及更远地方的常规旅行。虽然关于太空探索的社会伦理和法律影响(ELSI)的研究仍在不断发展,但美国国家航空航天局(NASA)已致力于将伦理作为一个优先问题,使其成为一个值得进一步研究的富有成果的领域。
