Chapter 10: The Future of Evolution – The End or a New Beginning of Humanity’s Evolutionary Journey? Evolution is an ongoing process. Every moment, every minute, every second, all living beings on Earth undergo changes to adapt to their environment. However, these changes can take millions of years at times, or happen in much shorter periods. In this article, we will look into the future of humanity's evolutionary journey and perhaps speculate on whether there might be an end or a new beginning in human evolution .

Very Long Life: Can Science See Beyond 100 Years? Throughout human history, while the lifespan has gradually increased over centuries, people remain obsessed with the idea of "eternal life" or living for an exceptionally long time. However, in recent times, the scientific community has begun to pay more attention to this topic. Will humans truly surpass 100 years of age? What are the ways to extend our life? As human biology and technology progress, answers to these questions are becoming more realistic. In this article, we will explore the technologies related to long life and life extension being developed in the scientific community. Human Lifespan and Historical Perspective Up until today, the average human lifespan has shown significant changes throughout history. During the Middle Ages, people expected to live only 30-40 years, whereas today, the average global lifespan ranges between 70-80 years. Of course, this duration varies by region.
