Why wouldn't we be able to do this eventually? Our thoughts are just electronic pulses in our brains. It's just a mater of time before we can digitalize them and save them in some sort of storage device.

That doesn't mean you will become immortal but your thoughts might be.

Now if they can figure out how to digitalize your brain to the point it can be aware and usable in a new body, then we have some interesting times ahead.

Think of space travel as being just your thoughts being beemed across space and downloaded into a new body..

Outside of sending the first settlers to build and develop a new habitat you could then populate a new world as fast as you could create new bodies even duplicating the most skilled/ smartest.
