I don-¦t see the contradiction, in the video the brain scan is clearly shown as well as the termination of the old body; the same happens as soon as a breach of the Capsule in space is detected: a brainscan and transmission to the new clone as well as termination of the already doomed pilot by poison injection.

As for the "clone contracts", that is just the roleplaying way to justify the monthly suscription/PLEX.

What's your problem with the video? It's showing how you die the first time to be a capsuleer. "We payed the ultimate price" means we give our life away to be immortal.
If I remember correctly, as per lore earlier the capsule and the cloning tech existed side-by-side. At that time only the strongest people could survive the stress to become capsuleer and control the ship. There were many dead during the trial and error style selection to be a capsuleer.
The breakthrough was when the cloning met the capsule tech and they placed clones into the capsule.
It enabled us to be capsuleer near 0% risk, but first time we need to leave our born body and transfer to our first clone. That's in the video.



I think its only a remnant of the old clone grades and prices.

By far the most well known and wide-spread kind is capsule-aided cloning, which came to prominence with the marriage of the capsule to the neural burner in YC 103. Capsule-aided cloning is limited primarily to capsuleers, and usually restricted to occasions when they are killed inside the hydrostatic capsule. When the capsule is breached through any means, the capsuleer is injected with a fatal toxin, while their brain is copied with a neural burner. This scan is then transferred to their clone, which is imprinted with a near-exact replica of their brain at the time of death.[15]

Cloning outside of a capsule is also possible, although the associated risks remain pretty much the same: The brain is scanned - and thereby ruined - and its contents transferred to a receiving station that instantaneously awakens the consciousness in a new clone. This can be done only under laboratory conditions, although technology in the area is progressing quite rapidly. The possibility looms that cloning may at some point take place outside the strictures of a capsule or a similar machine, though it's considered unlikely that it will ever be anything other than instantaneous.

Because of the short time-period between death and awakening of the clone, this method is not as controversial across the cluster as might have been expected, especially to many religions, who can more easily justify the transmigration of the GÇ£soulGÇ¥ from one body to another. However, many religious movements continue to insist that cloned individuals are mere copies, no more the original than a forgery of a work of art can be said to be.

- To become a capsuleer...
----- your mind FIRST needs to be put into a clone body with all the implants you need
----- you are cloned using an "old" cloning process
----- your old body is killed because it serves no purpose anymore (and because it is the law)
----- with your new body and the capsule, you can be cloned over and over again without a problem.

And just for a little more fun:

The clone bodies that Capsuleers use aren't what you might think of as clones. They're not grown from a sample of a capsuleers DNA.

They're generic bodies, assembled from biomass (quality varies. Sometimes human corpses, sometimes animal. sometimes vegetable) They have your face, because the skull's mostly replaced with plastic, which they can shape and then harden.

How does this part pop out? Only that video in 2012 or we have other data? Since that it is important why in the article talking about capsuleer and cloning don not mention it?
Thank you for trying to clarify my question.
By the way it's YC115 now, right? There should be some "old capsuleers" in the world?

TRANSNEURAL BURNING SCANNER
This is what you are looking for OP.

By the way so Amarr belives their queen is the lady who should dead... or they just say god save their queen so she is not clone?
