Dark Matter Regeneration

This page describes the complicated, human exclusive technology of Dark Matter Regeneration.

Function
Dark Matter Regeneration allows the human body to regenerate to a previously saved 'state', whilst the brain continues to age at a much slower rate. Through successive Dark Matter Regeneration cycles a human being can successfully live to an age of around 300 years, following which point the process loses its effectiveness.

History
Medical science had enabled human beings to live much longer than the traditional 80 years, extending the average life expectancy to a potential maximum of 150 years. However, the overwhelming desire to do more seemed to compel scientists to find a way to move beyond this limit imposed by nature. Attempts to move the brain to a functioning robotic body ended in disaster as the cyborgs attempted an uprising in order to free themselves from the cold horror which had been imposed upon them. Treaties to ensure such a thing would never happen again were swfitly drawn up and humanity has since then carefully imposed limits upon such artificial platforms.

Dark Matter Regeneration was theorised by futurist Jackson Thottle in 5,016 A.D. However, it was only until Charles Gamma created the vaccine which would change the face of humanity that the dream was realised.

Process
The actual function of the gene is not to begin the DMR process, but simply to ensure that it does not destroy the subject. By converting Dark Matter into gamma oil the gene prevents a human from contracting Dark Matter poisoning: a crippling illness that will kill the victim within 3 days.

In order to begin the DMR cycle one must go to a DMR Clinic (which can be found in almost any human populated part of the universe) to stand in a Dark Matter Field. The Dark Matter emitted from this field clings to human dna in a way which is unique to the species. As the human body changes, the Dark Matter remains in its originally absorbed form, much like a mould of the original imprint. By running a series of carefully calculated electrical pulses along the Dark Matter it reacts with the human dna, reverting it to its original state at the time of the imprint, leaving the brain to function normally, whilst still aging at a slower state than usual.

300 years is the time it takes for this dark matter copy to decompose following which it returns freely into the universe.
