Jurassic Park takes place on an Island off the Coast of Costa Rica which is
owned by a multimillionaire, John Hammond. On this island he has set up a
genetical engineering facility which permits him and his scientist to create
dinosaur from blood extracted from prehistoric mosquitos, that have been
preserved in amber. Before he opens this living attraction to the public he
needs specialist to approve the park. He brings them to the island and begins to
show them what he has accomplished. While they are touring the island one of the
computer programmers, Dennis Nedry, is secretly planning to steal dinosaur
embryos from the park and sell them to a company that is trying to compete with
Hammond. The only way Nedry can obtain these embryos is to immobilize the park
by interrupting the parks normal function, so that he could sneak in and steal
the embryos. This all takes place while the visitors are out in the park
touring, and in the mist of a terrible storm. After Nedry has executed a virus
in order to steal the embryos the storm hits, and the park power goes out. As
the power goes out the visitors to the island are stuck in the middle of
nowhere, with an escaped T-Rex. Everyone flees and is scattered through the
park. The animals begin attacking the control building, while they are search
for food. Since all the power is out there is no way to stop them, or containing
them. In the hysteria a scientist , Wu, discovers that the dinosaurs have been
mating, which they thought wasn't possible, because they were only cloning
females, but the dinosaurs have adapted and have found a way to reproduce. They
think they got the power back on so they try to put all the animals back in
their holding areas. Little did they know that the whole time the park was
running on auxiliary power, and once this power ran out they could not restore
the main power. When all the power finally ran out the animals began attacking
at full force now. Their only alternative to get the power restored is to have
someone manually turn on another auxiliary power generator so they could get the
main power running again. The visitors and the staff of Jurassic Park escape but
with two casualties. They escape by having a helicopter pick them up. After the
pick up the Costa Rican government bomb the island in order to destroy it.
According to the book genetic cloning can be accomplished by obtaining just a
small amount of blood. May this type of cloning be possible in real life only
time will tell, and the advancements in technology it should be a thing of the
future. The fact that this type of thing might be done, is slim only because of
dangers of disturbing the natural flow of things. In the book the greatest
marvel they discovered turned around and caused them great disaster. If man kind
does try to bring back the dinosaurs will the same happen?
