Team builds first living robots—that can reproduce

 AI-designed Xenobots reveal entirely new form of biological self-replication—promising for regenerative medicine

By Joshua Brown, University of Vermont Communications

(BURLINGTON, Vermont) – To persist, life must reproduce. Over billions of years, organisms have evolved many ways of replicating, from budding plants to sexual animals to invading viruses.

Now scientists at the University of Vermont, Tufts University, and the Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering at Harvard University have discovered an entirely new form of biological reproduction—and applied their discovery to create the first-ever, self-replicating living robots.

The same team that built the first living robots (“Xenobots,” assembled from frog cells—reported in 2020) has discovered that these computer-designed and hand-assembled organisms can swim out into their tiny dish, find single cells, gather hundreds of them together, and assemble “baby” Xenobots inside their Pac-Man-shaped “mouth”—that, a few days later, become new Xenobots that look and move just like themselves.

And then these new Xenobots can go out, find cells, and build copies of themselves. Again and again.

“With the right design—they will spontaneously self-replicate,” says Joshua Bongard, Ph.D., a computer scientist and robotics expert at the University of Vermont who co-led the new research.

The results of the new research were published November 29, 2021, in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

The Ominous Harbinger for America


Jonathan Cahn reveals the stunning connection between the disaster in Afghanistan, the judgment of America, and the continual unfolding of the mystery revealed in The Harbinger and The Harbinger II.

Save The Children

   

"...The mass vaccination of children with spike protein injections has no scientific or medical justification whatsoever and seems engineered to enrich Big Pharma while mass murdering young human beings. As the children of the world die from myocarditis, heart attacks, immunological disorders and even cancers over the next few years, it’s going to become apparent that humanity was engaged in a planetary scale mass child sacrifice ritual to Moloch, spurred on by demon-infested anti-humanists like Fauci. Any parent sacrificing their child to Moloch is rejecting God and securing their position in Hell for eternity. It’s not going to be a pretty experience for them. Those of us who understand the fundamentals of God’s teachings must now peacefully work to stop the mass sacrifice of our children and prove to God that we are defending the innocent by halting child sacrifice via “vaccines.”

Lunar eclipse turning full November moon into blood moon: When, how to see it

A partial lunar eclipse is set for later this week and you can expect it to turn the full moon of November 2021 into a reddish-orange color for more than an hour. The phenomenon has a spooky name – a blood moon – but, according to NASA, the change has more to do with a trick of light than anything ominous. Here’s what you need to know about the lunar eclipse and blood moon: When is the eclipse? The eclipse will take place in the pre-dawn hours of Friday, Nov. 19. According to NASA, the best viewing time will be right around the peak of the eclipse at 3:03 a.m. CT.
