The Announcement of Dolly, the First Cloned Mammal
On February 23, 1997, scientists at Scotland's Roslin Institute announced the birth of Dolly the sheep, the first mammal successfully cloned from an adult somatic cell. Born in July 1996, Dolly's existence was kept secret until this announcement. The news sparked a global ethical debate on cloning, its potential, and its implications for biology and medicine. Her creation demonstrated that specialized adult cells could be reprogrammed to create an entire new organism.
