SpinLaunch was founded in 2014, and its leadership team has since raised tens of millions of dollars in funding. The company has been working with NASA, Airbus, and Cornell University, launching some of their equipment as part of testing. The tech has so far endured 10,000 Gs, “10,000 times the force of Earth’s gravity,” all per the Space.com report.

If SpinLaunch’s concept proves reliable, it could eliminate the loads of fuel that is burned to launch spacecraft. In 2016, Business Insider noted that SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket used more than 900,000 pounds of propellant for each liftoff, for reference. The fuel efficiency may have improved some since then.

CBC News reports that a growing number of launches are starting to draw scrutiny, particularly for ozone layer health. The barrier protects us from some of the sun’s harmful radiation.

Chat GPT on Extending Healthy Lifespan and Epigenetic Cellular Rejuvenation.pdf https://lifeboat.com/blog/2023/02/chat-gpt-on-extending-healthy-lifespan-and-epigenetic-cellular-rejuvenation-pdf Fri, 17 Feb 2023 00:25:17 +0000 https://lifeboat.com/blog/2023/02/chat-gpt-on-extending-healthy-lifespan-and-epigenetic-cellular-rejuvenation-pdf

I wanted to test how well endowed is ChatGPT in the field of Longevity. For that matter I asked the following two questions: Which are the most promising therapies which are being developed to significantly extend healthy lifespan in humans using 4,000 characters (about maximum lenght to be readable in one page).

Which are the most promising therapies to achieve epigenetic cellular rejuvenation.

I created a two-page document in PDF with a screenshot of the responses for the two questions, so to show them exactly as they appeared in my laptop (no editing by me whatsoever).
