I'm curious as to what establishes the distinction between Interstellar space and space considered to belong to our Solar system. In other words, what boundary was crossed that you can tell that V'Ger is now in Interstellar space, where previously it was not.

Make sure you get a generous helping of that cake that has little blue candies for toppings.

Ok, I understand. Thank you.

How realistic is the concept of making an exact snapshot of all neural activity going on in a human and then copying that snapshot to a computer? The objective being to transfer that what makes a person a person from the mortal coil to a more persistent environment.

Would it be sufficient to only consider the brain itself, or do other parts of the nervous system also contribute to personality (e.g. what's inside the spine)? Do you see ways to make this a nondestructive process that can be repeated more than once at various points in the history of a human being?

I'm asking for a friend.

If only she would...
