Death

Description
Death is something that is long since eliminated, it was the process of a person becoming too old to live on, having major physical injury, or having a disease, mostly it was combined with the heart failing or the brain refusing to think.

History
Starting with the invention of age reversion revolution in 2145, people managed to live for however long they wished, and the main cause of death became accidents.

After society saw a lot of good people die by the cause of car crashes and reentry mishaps scientists started looking into ways to make humans even live through thinks like that. They started with giving the brain an External-Alive-Keeper (EAK), which did the trick, but eventually people died anyway because the pain caused by the heavy burns and broken everythings just became unbearable.

EAKs ruled out, scientists moved on to skin replacements, trying out a whole lot of things test persons usually died because their skin (which they didn't have anymore) couldn't be exposed to sunlight. They slowly died a painful death as their internal organs began devouring themselves.

That not working, scientists tried making a backup of the human brain, and then placing that into a 'blank' person. People died, but their minds lived on in the new body like nothing ever changed, only finding it strange that they suddenly were female.

The 'soul' was now safe, but the body still died, and they had to get used to a new body. So scientist took dna from an embryo, placed it's info into a chip, placed that into the person, synced the brain with the chip, and the chip with a central backup. The embryo grew up to be a formidable member of society, and eventually died by the cause of a 'lost' kitchen knife that had fallen from a bypassing galaxy hauler.

Scientists took all data from the central backup, grew a new embryo from it (into adult state), stimulated it's muscles, gave that embryo the backupped mind, and watched how the person who had so unfortunately died from a kitchen knife was amazed at how he was brought back to life.

These days all minds and chips are synced with the central backup unit in Phoenix 3's core, and everyone can respawn on each of the 31 constellation planets' respawn facilities.
