Question: Is it possible for humans to evolve wings on them?

It’s possible, although we would probably be a different species by then because evolution takes a long time. Humans are also very heavy – birds have special light or even hollow bones that make it easier for them to fly. We would need huge wings to fly, but on other planets with lower gravity, maybe this would be possible if we ever live on other planets (if there’s enough atmosphere for us to fly). It would take a long time for us to evolve to have wings, and we would have to have an advantage out of it for evolution to push us in that direction. Maybe it’s possible that medical science will allow us to grow wings in the future. A more exciting idea is that we could regrow our body after an accident – some animals can regrow parts of their body, and it would be great if we could heal people better in the future.
