SAINS??

Scientist Ray Kurzweil claims humans could become immortal in as littleas 20 years' time through nanotechnology and an increased understandingof how the body works.

The 61-year-old American, who has predicted new technologies arrivingbefore, says our understanding of genes and computer technology isaccelerating at an incredible rate.

He says theoretically, at the rate our understanding is increasing,nanotechnologies capable of replacing many of our vital organs could beavailable in 20 years time.

Mr Kurzweil adds that although his claims may seem far-fetched,artificial pancreases and neural implants are already available.

Mr Kurzweil calls his theory the Law of Accelerating Returns. Writingin The Sun, Mr Kurzweil said: "I and many other scientists now believethat in around 20 years we will have the means to reprogramme ourbodies' stone-age software so we can halt, then reverse, ageing. Thennanotechnology will let us live for ever.

"Ultimately, nanobots will replace blood cells and do their work thousands of times more effectively.

"Within 25 years we will be able to do an Olympic sprint for 15 minuteswithout taking a breath, or go scuba-diving for four hours withoutoxygen.

"Heart-attack victims – who haven't taken advantage of widely availablebionic hearts – will calmly drive to the doctors for a minor operationas their blood bots keep them alive.

"Nanotechnology will extend our mental capacities to such an extent we will be able to write books within minutes.

"If we want to go into virtual-reality mode, nanobots will shut downbrain signals and take us wherever we want to go. Virtual sex willbecome commonplace. And in our daily lives, hologram like figures willpop in our brain to explain what is happening.

"So we can look forward to a world where humans become cyborgs, with artificial limbs and organs."

ye..aku tau korang bukan nak baca pon panjang2 ni kan?kesimpulannya,saintis(betol ke aku eja?) sedang mengkaji kemungkinan manusia boleh hidup kekal abadi.

???????????

Boleh ke?

Aku sebagai umat islam masih berpegang konsep setiap yang hidup pasti mati..
