Death: The Beginning

If Death is the ultimate question, and science fiction the literature of answers, what can one tell us about the other? 
If death is part of what makes us human, would immortality make us something else? Science fiction often comforts us with the former, warns us with the latter, but oddly enough, rarely steps outside this dichotomy.

Death part 1: The Beginning! Next episode: Death - The After Life.
