I keep thinking about what humans will look like in the future after watching a few of the National Geographic's "Year Million" episodes on TV.
I came up with the idea it is highly possible a group of scientists in the world may pursue a gene splice in humans allowing them to create a skin cell filled with sugar producing chlorophyll, the way plants do.
Once we have chlorophyll skin we could survive extended periods of time in space, without eating, by just soaking up the rays from stars we pass along the way! The carbohydrates produced by chlorophyll in our new skin would sustain our bodies through the cosmos to distant stars.
Maybe we would live longer with chlorophyll skin.
Interesting idea.
