"First Synthetic Cell manufactured"
From what I've heard, what they've actually develloped is a way to reliably synthesize a complete set of chomosomes from scratch, nothing more, nothing less. They created the chomosomes of an existing strain of bacteria and put them in a different strain. Still a huge breakthrough, but not exactly what it's being represented as by the media.
