Posted by CmdrTaco on from the science-fiction-will-be-real-in-our-lifetime dept.

m0rphin3 writes "Japanese scientists have cloned mice whose bodies were frozen for as long as 16 years and said on Monday it may be possible to use the technique to resurrect mammoths and other extinct species. Could we finally see Jurassic Park become a reality, or perhaps use this for colonizing other galaxies?"

    Breaking news! Michael Crichton, the author of the blockbuster science-fiction novel "Jurassic Park," and winner of an Academy Technical Achievement Award has died. He was 66. Truly an American icon.
