Thumbs up Meiosis in somatic cells?

can we induce meiosis in somatic cell? if yes, then by using which factor or proteins or what medium?
Iam talking about meiosis in somatic cell because I have a question in my mind that if suppose we induce meiosis in somatic cell so that it becomes haploid,now if we extract this haploid nucleus and artificially and inject it into the ova by using micro injection and further we are adding centrioles in ova from paternal side(required to form spindle during cleavage),
now my question is "is development is possible in such case by using haploid somatic cell"?

if it is not possible than why not, is genetics of somatic cell playing any role that is causing no development?

A Fine-Tooth Comb To Measure The Accelerating Universe
imageAstronomical instruments needed to answer crucial questions, such as the search for Earth-like planets or the way the Universe expands, have come a step closer with the first demonstration at the telescope of a new calibration system for precise spectrographs. The method uses a Nobel Prize-winning technology called a 'laser frequency comb', and is published in this week's issue of Science.

Fermilab physicists discover "doubly strange" particle
imagePhysicists of the DZero experiment at the U.S. Department of Energy's Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory have discovered a new particle made of three quarks, the Omega-sub-b (Ωb). The particle contains two strange quarks and a bottom quark (s-s-b). It is an exotic relative of the much more common proton and weighs about six times the proton mass.

Stanford's 'autonomous' helicopters teach themselves to fly
imageStanford computer scientists have developed an artificial intelligence system that enables robotic helicopters to teach themselves to fly difficult stunts by watching other helicopters perform the same maneuvers. The result is an autonomous helicopter than can perform a complete airshow of complex tricks on its own.
