Hmmm, what about for a liver or kidney? People donate those all the time without dying.
What’s the point of stem cell research if not for organ replacement? That seems like the #1 reason to be researching them in the first place.

You seem like you know a thing or two about this.
What if it were from an identical twin?
Do you know how far away we are from growing organs with stem cells?

Moving emitters wouldn’t be too difficult and would also allow the system to follow a submarine or fleet around as well

Could you theoretically develop a sonar network that was constantly sending out pulses kind of like a WiFi network. So friendly ships would have access and basically have a map of the waters?
Obviously the ocean is massive and you wouldn’t be able to do this everywhere. But important strategic locations, especially defensive ones, I feel like this could work.
