Researchers found a "pause" button that can stop the human embryo advance. And that thing can have many solutions. In the case of a mother's illness or injury, the medical team can save the embryo's life by stopping its advance. But that ability can make things like interstellar travel possible.
It's one theoretically, a very easy, way to transfer people to the other solar system if we don't want to get them back. The mission controllers can use the human embryos for the other solar system. Those colonists can have the robot controllers, and they can have the training material for the mission. That thing might not yet be possible. Because of our culture and moralistic-ethical thinking. Of course, technology sets limits to that kind of project.

In some versions, the Space Ark transports people on the journey, which takes a minimum of hundreds of years. That hypothetical generation craft has two groups. The crew who operate and control the flight. And the colonists who land on those planets. Maybe someday in the future, we will make that kind of mission.
The pause for embryo growth is more fundamental than we ever could imagine. This thing means that researchers could put embryos into the freezers for a long time. And that is, of course, a fundamental step for stem cell research. But the ability to stop embryo growth and advance is the tool, that makes things like interstellar journeys possible. When we think about the enormous distances in the universe and situations where we cannot return home we can send embryos to that journey.
The idea is that the genetically engineered humans will make that journey as embryos, and then the computers teach them using artificial intelligence, Virtual reality, and brain shell stimulation. Theoretically, the ability to control the embryo advance brings the dream of immortality closer than we ever think. If we think about immortality it's possible to create nanotechnology, that fixes DNA in our cells.
Or the persons make clones of themselves. Then that person will write letters to that cloned descendant or make the digital recordings. Then the defendant will use those recordings to reach the same intelligence and knowledge that the "original person" had. Those things cause discussions and many opinions.
