Kalpana Chawla Rebirth and What to Make of It

Here’s a recent piece on the apparent rebirth of Kalpana Chawla, who perished in the Columbia shuttle disaster back in 2003.

The curious and interesting part is actually right at the end:

Upasana was born barely two months after the astronaut`s death in 2003

This begs the questions:

  • why not 9 months?
  • does this mean there might not be any frozen souls in frozen embryos?
  • what about the implications on issues such as abortion, or stem cell research?
