Humans (Shades of Grey)

Humanity began exploring space outside Sol System in the mid 21st century, with the discovery of various means to go faster than the speed of light, in paticular the Warp Drives. =Biology=

=Spirituality= It would be cynical for me to say that there will be no religion in the 24th century, so I won't. There still is the old religions, such as Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam, Buddhism, Shinto, Sikhism, the Bahá'í Faith, Jainism, and many others, including a few new ones. However, late 21st-century, religious leaders began to tell their worshipers that their religions may give them piece of mind, but they do not properly answer any question on the fundemental questions in the universe. At least not scientifically. No longer will you see people fighting between creationism and evolution, as it has been agreed that the Bible is not a reliable source for information. Plus, interstellar craft constructors are no longer obliged to put religious paraphenalia on their craft, requiring crew and passangers to bring their own.

=Gender/Family= With a rise of new religions, the role of the genders has become diluted. The extemely liberal EarthGov allows pretty much anything to happen, so you'll have patriarchal partnerships (Mr. and Mrs. John Smith), matriarchal (Mrs. and Mr. Jane Smith), homosexual realtionships (Mr. and Mr. John Smith, Mrs. and Mrs. Jane Smith), communal marridges (Mr, Mr, Mr, Mrs, Mr, Mrs, Mr, Mrs and Mrs John Doe), even some robot-human relationships (Mr. and Ro. John Smith) and just about every different kind of partnership imaginable.

Artificial Wombs
Also, with the rise of artificial wombs in the early 22nd century, women who had no wish to be pregnant yet still have a baby of their own genes had their wish come true. This of course had some complications on the grounds of the babies and mother wouldn't bond as you see in natrual births. Plus, a power cut in 2112 at the LA based YourBaby institute meant thousends of children were born with some disfigurement. A court case ruled it not to be YourBaby's fault, but it decreed by Federal law, all artificial womb centres would require a back-up generator. (Before hand, they weren't required, as they weren't seen as hospitals.) Many companies used this law to use up the building's self-suffciancy requirement.

Artificial Sex Cells
Nearly one hundred years after the perfection of the artificial womb, so was created the artificial egg. Careful cellular restructuring meant male homosexual couples and infertile women could have genetic decendants from a single sperm sample. One hundred years on, and the technique hasn't advanced. There is little chance the sperm would re-structure itself into an egg, but there is usually at least one. Due to the fact beggars can't be choosers, the people using artificial eggs won't be able to choose their babie's features.

 * This is a WIP. Also, if you need me to elaborate on anything, don't hesitate to ask in the discussion.
