Yes, this is another interesting question. And there is more, did they have different countries and religions, maybe different colour. Then I really want to know what Ax meant when he said Cassie's dad was "a male - as all human fathers"

he said that? hmm...maybe he meant that since many species have different arrangements he was clarifying.

Not that different? I mean, the seahorse in the most different species we know and still we know that the male one is the father... He said that anyway...

Diary of Aximili-Esgarrouth-Isthill
Being in Prince Jake's body is no different from being in my regular human morph. Except
that it is slightly larger. Since the morph was formed from his DNA, I looked exactly like
him. Cassie insisted I borrow a garment called "overalls" and a pair of boots from her barn
before entering her home. Humans are very particular about clothing. I still do not understand
why.
"Hi, Jake. Cassie talk you into helping her muck out the barn again?" Cassie's father asked
me as I walked into her house.
He was a male - as all human fathers are. His hair was dark brown, but it seemed to have
been removed from much of his head. He wore round transparent lenses on his face which, I
am told, are for correcting faulty vision. His complexion is darker. He had the usual number
of legs and arms."

I can imagine body parts just left in Z Space. I always pictured Z space like honey in a way.
Until then we fight.

Haha that is true...
But I don't think Ax is so smart, remember that he was mad at Visser3 for he bad been on the andalites moon and acquired that sea monster.

maybe it was a lapse in memory caused by emotion?

This reminds me of the Nothlit Chronicles fanfiction. If they didn't experiment on animals, they may have experimented on criminals, or terminally ill Andalites.

MRLARRYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!! DAMN YOUUUUUUUUUU!!

That story touched on all of these questions lol I don't know any other stories that deal with the origin of the morphing power and the first tests of it. And it was such a good story! Gah, how cruel.

I gotta agree with Mira, there definately had to be tests, nothing can be worked out completely theoretically

I would assume that the tech was completely different back at the very first trial, they probably modified it over the years just like we modify our technology, smaller and faster

im sure it was more painful, took longer, the box was probably bigger, maybe the animal mind had more control, or maybe there was no animal mind and they added that ability so they would have some knowledge of how to use the body they had morphed

Nah.  It's not even a cube anymore.  It's a parallelpiped about 100mm x 60mm x 15 mm with rounded edges.  It's white, with a clear finish. 

Yes, they let Steve-flipping-Jobs design the damn thing.  Personally, I prefer when it was pure Andalite tech--they at least have a sense of style.

If morphing is anything like lycanthropy (which it seems to be), they definitely did not have to "add in" the animal mind.  The hard part is keeping it out, really.

Thought-speak, on the other hand.  That is definitely part of the tech: that explains how the Animorphs are able to TS in morph: they don't morph an ordinary bear, dolphin, trout, etc.  They morph a bear, dolphin, trout, etc that's been modified to allow TS.

Azuguard, can you explane what you mean here, I don't understand the word "lapse" and it's not in my dictionary either.
