So the teleporter in Star Trek.

So it kills you then makes you new somewhere.

And it can even “rewind you” to a previous pattern.

So if you wanted to live forever. You could just do a reset every 20-30 years to a saves spot.

You wouldn’t have any of the new memories but you could leave your new self a little video or run down of the last 20 years. And then after the new you reads or watches it. Then a new pattern is saved. So that you will remember all that. And then do it again in 20 years.

The teleporter is the biggest cosmic existential horror part of Star Trek.

As long as the flower is rescued, all is good.
