Scientists are saying “Do not create mirror life in the lab, it could end all life on Earth.”

Do you think they’ll listen?

New issue: Mirrorlife | BBC Science Focus Magazine
Mirror life could end all life on Earth. That sounds dramatic, but senior biologists have raised the alarm about experiments happening all around the world. It sounds like something in a Doctor Who pl...

#MirrorLife - An issue I've been raising with the government, without getting a lot of response

Mirror life is a mass-extinction risk we don’t need to take
Scores of researchers and scientific groups have been warning that research toward the creation of mirror life should not be conducted. Not everyone is convinced.

First time I ever read about this concept, I believe, was in sourcebooks for #2300AD published by #GDW back in the 1990's...? #mirrorlife

My colleague asked for a good example of why chirality matters regarding amino acids and other biomolecules. My response was sending these Fantastic Four panels from @ryannorth.ca because I’m a nerd like that…

Which means, IF YOU’RE A SCIENTIST, YOU SHOULD BE READING THE FANTASTIC FOUR RN!

Interesting! 50 years ago scientists paused rDNA research and put in safeguards, it has been managed safely and a boon to medicine. So far human cloning is thankfully a crime. I can see some potential benefits of mirrorlife tech but it’s good to think this one through. #mirrorlife

A group of scientists has sounded an alarm about the potential creation of mirror bacteria — synthetic organisms in which the molecular structure found in nature is reversed and could put humans, animals and plants at risk of exposure to dangerous pathogens
Mirror bacteria may constitute ‘radical departure from known life,’ scientists warn | CNN
Experts sounded an alarm about the potentially lethal risks of creating mirror bacteria, synthetic organisms in which the molecular structure found in nature is reversed.

'Mirror life' - life of the opposite chirality to our own - poses a distant, yet serious, #biosecurity threat. In this #ChemRxiv preprint, we set out molecules emitting ciruclarly polarised light can be used to identify and screen against #mirrorlife threats.

"That's very interesting, Claude. Can you give us a sample?"
"Sure thing. Look at how this ART system I found DNA-slices this sample, editing its genes into its mirror configuration."
"Can we build sex dolls out of this stuff?"

BIG BREAKING NEWS - CDC has told a Cruise Ship to remain offshore (DejaVu 2019) as it is infected & passengers being treated for unknown virus/flu. SARS2-COV2, or BirdFlu top suspects
From ABCNews Alerts here as a PSA: Cruise Ship is denied port entry by USCG/FL-Disaster Force into Tampa Bay Area from Caribbean cruise (supposedly a niche cruise- DEI, LGBTQ+, Elderly, etc) from pre-Superbowl partying on board. Almost 100 passengers detained while they check for dangerous outbreak 😷 potential. Those boarding in full pandemic protection garb
