It could be posible that Bean's "problem" is resolved by the Descoladores, as they d seem to be able to change the gentic makeup of adult organisms.
I didn't read the second 2 bean books but... didn't 3000 years pass? did Bean travel at near lightspeed in the later books or what? Ooh, I know! Ender's kids'll invent time travel using Jane and go back in time! </goofy speculation> Kuronue 23:29, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
Bean travelled at near lightspeed...
Another possibility is that the abilities Ender's kid's/Jane have of creating matter, like the piggie's cure, will allow them to create a cure for him and his children or maybe just the children.
- Ender survived the 3,000 years through relativistic effects of lightspeed travel. The "shadow" series ends with Bean doing the same thing, only explicitly for the purpose of survival. And as the Descolada was cured, so too could Bean be cured (virus that works via genetic manipulation...). Little logical bits, really.
But how many years will it had been, even at Relativistic speeds on Bean's ship, and how big will he have grown, even if he is still alive, maybe its only his children
- Presumably much less subjective time will pass for Bean than Ender; Ender & Val travel plans involved staying at a planet for a few months and then moving on. I think the ships in this series typically traveled between .95C & .99C in interstellar space, and there is a forumla that can be used determine the minimum subjective time that could have passed.
