The Secret to Accelerating Longevity

Video Description

A few months ago my friend Martin texted me with an idea: What if there was a "$ per kg to Orbit metric for Longevity?" This was not very long after we made New Space — a film about the recent renaissance of spaceflight thanks to SpaceX's work in reducing the cost of launch — or, optimizing the cost per kilogram to orbit. This is a lovely framework to consider accelerating other fields through: are there "master metrics" that can clearly be measured and if optimized drive unbelievable growth? So, what should these metrics look like? So on Martin's recommendation, I embarked upon a quest to search for a "$/kg to orbit" for longevity! This video chronicles the answers I found. 0:00 Immortality 0:43 What is aging? 3:30 Sponsor! 4:07 A $ / kg to orbit 5:10 Healthy years / $ 6:08 Experiments / time 8:00 Who cares?
