Peter Diamandis, X PRIZE Foundation's Chairman & CEO, would like to know what you think about the creation of super-revolutionary X PRIZES that will totally change the way we live.
@HosteDenis@HosteDenis are you out to space lunch? Most anti aging research is about keeping the old people in good shape, it's generally excepted 120 years is the mmax lifespan scientists are mostly trying to spread working years from 20-65 closer to 120
I think it is brilliant, areas I think should be looked at is:
Stopping aging/curing the diseases that is caused by aging.
Colonizing other planets/mons/L5 and so on...
Faster than light communication (for these outposts)
Faster than light "travel" perhaps "just" a chunk of metal, or a proton for the first try.
Serious artificial intelligence perhaps combined with a robot, that could start taking care of the jobs that humans don't want. Not a welding robot, but far more advanced.
well...I did not find a single thing on a 15 year old designing and building a working jet engine from scratch independently. (not the turbo type! but centrifugal compression non the less)
I'm sorry, but now you just sound like a dreamer... And don't get me wrong, we need dreamers, to come up with ideas and work on those ideas, but we need realists too... And as a realist I know that won't happen for another 200 year or so. And even then, we will populate Mars at a very slow rate, as I see it as hugely expensive, hostile, difficult, ... And who would want to give up his home here for that? Overpopulation remains a problem!
Simply because I do not agree with you saying: "Ending aging unlocks a lot of human potential".
I don't think humans of age 80+ in general are capable of contributing to society... They lose memory, abilities, quickness of thinking (I'm not an English native speaker, so forgive me the fact that I don't know the word), ...

nono-bots COULD be made to fix our neurons keeping us in the best mental capacity(around 21 years old)

How do you know your the first?

HosteDenis, all of the things you have listed occur as a result of aging.
Anyway... The planet is overpopulated enough as it is, and under resourced. We need to start bioengineering Mars- for our future generations.
