Union Laws : Death

Union Laws: Death

While it would be possible to reanimate almost any life form known to Union Medicine, as long as there is at few cells intact. Also cell level regrowth and cloning is well within the medical possibilities, it is against the law to reanimate  any sentient life form that has ceased to live.

 The Union definition of death is the cessation of neural activity.

Union Medics are sworn to protect life, but only to the point of death. It is by

Union Assembly and Union Wide Vote (Docket 01 - First Month, First Day 2399) that as tragic and

terminal death is, it is a part of life. Until all meta physical and ethical questions can be answered in a

satisfactory fashion. Resurrection and re-animation of a sentient being is prohibited.

The Cloning of any sentient life form is severely restricted and any experimentation must be approved by Assembly Vote

and under open supervision of the Science Council.

(Only 75 experiments have been so approved. The Clone protection laws put into effect after the Gene Clone Revolts are diligently

enforced.)
