It's a legitimate fear for our species. We need human consciousness to be more mobile. We have all our eggs in one basket called Earth.

If you can hang in there until 2050, maybe your consciousness can be preserved.

It would be tricky to implement - IIRC the eyes are wired right into the front of the brain using some extremely wide nerve bundles. I'm not sure that would work if the eyes were a few feet away from the brain.

On the other hand it seems to work fine in science fiction, from Pierson Puppeteers to Uniocs:

Obviously a wireless adapter would have to be used, John. Sheesh!

You guys remember Yendred, the zippered-sphincter boy from The Planiverse? Love that book. If you have young kids, and you want to get them hooked on STEM, that's a good one.

We just need to develop spooky signal processing at a distance? Are there any lifeforms in sci-fi that utilize quantum entanglement?

I mean on a biological level.

That's what I mean too. We are quantum entangled.

I'm dim on too many subjects. You'll have to explain how our bodies are using quantum entanglement to our advantage.
