What it concludes

Most Minions in the later films are not the original 230 creatures, but clones made by Gru and Dr. Nefario using gelato matter and dentures.
Minions can survive extreme temperatures in space reaching -455 degrees Fahrenheit (-265 Celsius) and do not require food or water.
The original 230 Minions are immortal and cannot die, allowing Gru to bond with them over decades.
