POSTPONED: NASA and SpaceX launch first crewed mission from the U.S. to the space station

[NeuromodulatorNetwork]

Although this SpaceX launch was postponed, as a Harvard neuroscientist, I'm incredibly excited about the prospects of Elon's NeuraLink that is projected to be able to employ as much as 10 individual 4-mm chips within one person's brain, each chip of which will have multiple nanowires capable of projecting to and innervating distal ad-hoc neural targets (~1, 000 neurons per chip). These nanowires will be able to spatiotemporally detect endogenous neuronal activity and simultaneously emit corrective current pulses to ameliorate various conditions, akin to what deep-brain stimulation is already providing for many patients with Parkinson's disease. Although many of the aims of NeuraLink that Elon has publicly delineated will likely not come to fruition anywhere near within the time frame that he's provocatively extrapolated, these efforts are paving the way toward some truly versatile technology that will eventually be able to mitigate many disease conditions and perhaps even augment certain aspects of healthy neural signaling. The latter would undoubtedly open up Pandora's box to a host of obvious caveats and ethical concerns. Therefore, thoughts on regulations would also come into the forefront at the advent of such a polarizing event, which will likely not occur within our lifetime. On a related note, I'm currently developing neuro-related vids for my forthcoming channel, the crux of which will be to provide realistic action steps for leveraging our brains to improve our lives. So feel free to sub in the interim if interested. 🧠⚡🤯 My "about" section provides verifiable proof of my Ph.D. in neuroscience and postdoctoral training at Harvard, to preemptively refute any spurious rebuttals from cantankerous persuasions. As for those who still want to leave any hater/troller-esque comments, which are strikingly commonplace in the YouTube comment sphere and often suggest deep psychological pain underneath any veiled humor, consider choosing love/empathy over fear/hate. We're in this together.💓🧘‍♂️🌎

Why do they launch from the state with the most messed up weather . ? We had sunny ass weather in California and we have plenty of empty land to place one of these launch pads .

[elvishfaeryn]

Yeah it was storming pretty bad here in central Florida so I was guessing maybe something might happen

[bojackson]

Poor lil' octopus holding the nose cone to the body looks scared....

[raylars]

... kinda knew right away when they mentioned weather that I didn't want to waste hrs watching for a no go ... poor astronauts, Big Sigh

[andersonrodas]

“Real footage, but fake mission” why they cut the audio? Real simple, giving instructions what to do inside to make everyone think they are out of space

[Reuters]

UPDATE: The SpaceX launch of two astronauts, the first NASA crew bound for orbit from the U.S. in 9 years, has been postponed due to weather

You have to have some type of commentators or something.

[JordanRichterOnline]

I just wanted to see if the 119 comments would turn to 120..

[JordanRichterOnline]

You don’t have to fake it, if you don’t even have to take off...

[CdrAshish]

Bummer I was looking forward to seeing the rocket launch

[george]

I hope the astronauts will come back safely, it been so long the American never been sending astronauts to space, it must be very brave to take part in this project,

[only__q]

So is this the ship that's going to go into the worm hole in Antarctica #elonmusk asking for a friend #spaceX

[PMPNJ]

This is like watching Gemini, over 55 years ago. No wants to admit it and it's nice to see were starting over, but we're really behind what we should be and all the baby boomers know it!

[softutor]

Postponed while giant alien space ship flies by over the clouds!

[christiantremblay]

Alez vous nous lacher un peut avec la civd

[a.j.dillon]

They can send a rocket into space but cant predict weather

[christiantremblay]

Alez vous nous lacher un peut avec la covid

[masonstubbs]

The fact this was filled with political garbage makes me sad
