Abstract
The main powers in innovation and development find common ground in the scientists, philosophers and futurologists of the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century who were part of Russian cosmism and the incipient transhumanism. Science fiction books, movies and series allowed us to imagine a world that later technological developments made possible. Approaching –for some– the moment of «singularity», we predict the possibilities of what could happen, and make some proposals to prevent the most detrimental consequences. We introduce them in topics such as genetically engineered human enhancement, cryogenics, life extension, ectogenesis, mind transfer, artificial intelligence and robotics, among other issues, which are transhumanism goals for the new world order.
Keywords: Transhumanism, Russian cosmism, human enhancement, new world order, ectogenesis, cryo-genics
