/sci/, i have to hand in a huge mathematical modeling project (ODEs) by Monday. It is equivalent to solving 50 hard differential equations. Motivate me to pursue such a task. I NEED A MUSIC PLAYLIST.

Atheist in what sense exactly? As in any religion or creator of the universe ever conceived? Gnostic atheist there. As in something that could be equated to consciousness creating the universe or the universe being some tiny unobserved byproduct of it? I don't know. Possible. Agnostic atheist there.

Religion makes me sad because I really do feel more 'enlightened' just by being scientifically literate rather than praying to whatever. And It makes me sad that it's very hard to show this aspect of 'knowing' to any religious person.

Yes. I have a LOT of stuff that I want to do. After working a few years in some aerospace company I will try to start up an aerospace-related company. I need it for funding for further operations for the TRS. Assuming I can get the TRS up, then I will offer anyone that can come up with a free-to-everyone patented cure for aging or at least longevity extension a spot on the first manned missions to Jupiter and Saturn, as well as shitloads of resource credits. Gotta have some way of turbocharging 'funding' for such research.

while we're at it, can you explain aging/cure for aging for someone with mid-tier biology knowledge and ~ when it will be attainable?

i've seen a group posted on sci who claim that it will be achievable by 2030 i think (can't remember their name though) but i presume that is too unrealistic.

>> No.3130653

>>3130633

Eventually we'll be able to increase life expectancy by a year, every year. This is what they mean by ending aging by 2030.
And then, once you live for another 100 years, it's only likely that someone will discover either biological immortality, or some other kind of immortality.

Aubrey de Grey (the guy that heads the Manhattan Beach Project to cure aging by 2029) has his site which explains how they would combat aging more effectively than I.

http://www.sens.org/sens-research/research-themes

Personally I think he's spot on, but I don't think his team will discover it. I reckon that if Aubrey just continues attracting attention and support there will eventually be a mainstream presence of the idea. Once this happens it all snowballs. ~2025 - 2040
Aubrey predicted the first mouse to have aging reversed in some or all of its organs would happen around 2020. It happened just recently.

http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2010/nov/28/scientists-reverse-ageing-mice-humans

Here is a documentary on Aubrey and his quest

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-3329065877451441972#

And here is a story that brilliantly illustrates the problem we face with death by aging.
