The movie Gattaca is about a man named Vincent who ever since he was a little boy, wanted to go up into space. But first he has to attend at Gattaca to be allowed to go into space. He had the knowledge and most of the qualifications. The only thing that was holding him back was his genes. If you looked at his genes, he just had a small heart problem and that was literally the only reason he couldn't get into space. But Vincent would do anything to get into space. So he fakes to be a guy named Jerome so that he could get into space.
Cloning is a very big part in this film. This is what Vincent is trying to do with Jerome. Vincent would take many samples of genetic information from Jerome every day to Gattaca. It was a long process but it was worth it to Vincent. Some of the genetic information Vincent would take from Jerome would be pee, hair, blood, and fingerprints.
I don't really think cloning is that cool. Two of the same people would be really weird and confusing. I think the bad things that could happen would greatly outweigh the good things out of it. The only good thing that I can come up with is that it could maybe look cool. But just say your clone robs a bank.
The police find you walking down the road and arrest you. How are you gonna explain that you didn't rob the bank but your clone did? You both look exactly the same. It would do much more bad things than good and I don't think anybody should further look into doing that were much better off without it.
