Cloning on the moon

[UltraBudgie]

Here's the thing about cloning (supposedly).   The "clone" is a biological copy of it's source.  Tissue, bone, structure.   NOT memory.   A "clone" would not retain the memories or experiences of it's source.

Makes a great story though

There is also british doing this without nasa logo

We expect that the private archive will be able to store tens of Terabytes. To put this into perspective, a photograph can range from kilobytes to megabytes in size. Precise costings for data have not yet been confirmed, but the more you spend, the bigger your memory box.
Sales of memory boxes will start during Lunar Mission One’s development stage, but why wait until then? By pledging £60 or over on Kickstarter, you will get a voucher for a memory box – the value of which will be equivalent to your pledge. So if you pledge more now, you secure more space later! We will also be offering physical space for you to deposit a strand of your hair.

So they have memory box for data as well as dna as you are right they are separate physical substrate and information. Also any clone would be small? But accelerated development, and is that even necessary for space-travel? Doesn't all have to happen at once. And as johnlear said the moon is soul collector and that was 15 years ago! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL...8G8k40n3QT so its long term project, the moon, theres reasons she winks every month haha
