Well, on a purely physical plane, yes. Cloning tech makes that so. If you want to talk about the metaphysical, then we’re all either immortal or mortal, depending on your POV.
@PD – So, even if a capsuleer dies unplugged from his capsule, he still clones? Far as I know, that statement is inaccurate. If a capsuleer dies outside of the pod, he’s dead, just like anyone else.
I read a chronicle that has a capsuleer cloning outside his pod. he was a prick who realized some truths when his clone got messed up and his implants were screwed up permanently. His GF shoots him and he wakes up in a clone. I’ll have to find it. Check the copies of EON I gave you, see if it’s in one of those.
If it’s in a chronicle, I think that makes it canon. There’s a lot of contradictory information on this.
@ PD
I know we have debated this before. In the EVE scientific article about cloning, it describes the cloning process. The emergency medical clone (not jump clone) destroys the brain matter during the scan. The host is left dead (or brain dead) after the scan. They linked the scan with the pod sensors. When the pod breaches (which is death), the scan activates and sends the information.
OK, the chronicle is called Paradigm Shift, and it’s in EON #7. I’m not saying it’s canon, I’m saying it MAY be. Tech develops over time, so maybe the sci-article out of date.

Yet life to a capsuleer is in unlimited supply…
@PD – Is it? Is it really?

I’ll try and find the chronicle tonight.

CCP needs to update those sci-articles anyways.
