Jurassic Park might be impossible since the half life of DNA in bone is 521 years, which means that all the DNA in the bone would be destroyed after 6.8 million years. That means after about 80 million years, no DNA samples would be left (in ideal conditions)
Jurassic Park should not be created if it was possible. There would be more competition for resources and humans would be prey (for once since we are the top of the food chain)
The oldest DNA samples ever recorded are from 800,000 years ago.
Temperatures, oxygenation and other environmental factors make it difficult to detect a basic rate of degradation
(half of the DNA's bonds would be broken in 521 years, and the other in another 521 years)
frozen fossil bone may contain DNA from up to 1 million years ago.
Other factors that impact on DNA preservation include storage time following excavation, soil chemistry and even the time of year when the animal died
