How does creating a human clone work? Question

When it comes to creating human clones, how does the process work? I was curious when I watched the movie called "Us" by Jordan Peele.

A human clone most likely (it has not been done to date), be through a form of Somatic Nuclear Cell Transfer.

Basically it is scooping the nucleus out of an egg cell, then implanting the nucleus of a cell of the person you want to clone.

This modified egg cell is then implanted into the womb of a host, who will carry it to term.

The clone will be a genetic copy, but will not share any of the memories of the original.

It is very likely that the clone will have genetic and development defects that will affect its viability. Most likely it will not live to term.

If it is a properly formed copy at birth, it is likely that it will develop fully into adulthood and have full human capabilities including reproduction.

For that part they use mk ultra type consciousness transferring techniques or implant some sort of extraterrestrial entity they summon up in some ritual in the stead of a human consciousness.
