      Would I like to go into space? Yes, but I’m too old now to apply to the ESA astronaut corps 🙁

      Who would not? But I would like to come back alive too!

      Animal? There are so many of them anyway, why bother ;-)?

      I would love to go into space, perhaps to travel to the moon and look back on our beautiful Earth. I think that would be wonderful, perhaps one day in my life I will be able to do that.

      I don’t think I’d want to create my own species of animal, because animals need to fit safely into an ecosystem for them to be able to survive and not bother too many other animals. I suppose I might use the power to bring an extinct species back to life that humans had destroyed so that we could preserve it and learn from it. Perhaps the Dodo, or maybe the Thylacine, a marsupial species that looked like a cross between a dog and a tiger.

      I would love to go to space, so if they had a need for a geneticist like me up there I would be first to apply!

      And I probably wouldn’t want to create my own species of animal. I believe that the animals we have have evolved for a reason and the animals we can only imagine haven’t evolved for a good reason too! I wouldn’t want to mess up the balance of life on Earth after all!
