"I can appreciate what Author Simmons went through so in my novel [The Final Phase] you become 'triturated' in which - to oversimplify - your physical form is reformed into another state so that your body subsequently does not age at all on long space flights.

I've always been partial to Dr. McCoy's misgivings myself."
