Resolves to YES if a spacecraft completes a flyby of Uranus, or achieves orbital insertion, with at least one live human on board before January 1st, 2045. For the purpose of this market, a flyby of Uranus must occur within a distance of no more than 1 million kilometers from the planet.

To meet the criteria, the human aboard the spacecraft must remain awake for at least one continuous hour during the period when the spacecraft is within the 1 million kilometers threshold from Uranus. Furthermore, during this awake period, the human's heart rate must not drop below 30 beats per minute (prohibiting some, hypothetical, methods of stasis).

The safe return of the human passenger is not a necessary condition for the market to resolve to YES. The human must be alive as the spacecraft reaches the 1 million kilometers threshold from Uranus. If the human is in a state of suspended animation or asleep at the time of crossing this threshold, they must be successfully resuscitated or woken up for at least one hour while the spacecraft remains under the specified distance from Uranus.

Additionally, the human on board must possess both a functioning brain and heart, with limited alterations. These vital organs may have undergone chemical, mechanical, or electronic modifications, provided that these enhancements do not significantly alter the organ's functioning compared to that of a typical human. Complete modification or replacement of any other organ in the human's body is permissible within the context of this question.

I am behind of manifold news, but didn't the appeal of these markets used to be, you will get your money back through loans if you bet 20 years into the future, after the website probably died anyway... And that recently changed?

Will these markets lose their popularity?

@VAPOR Nah you still get the loans from the future. You just have to click on the button to get the loan from existing investments

If you bet an obvious no at 50% down to 20% and then a lot of people bet it down to 1% over the years, you get your money back through loans... Plus profit... Was that it? Still a thing with a button?

I don't get this part of manifold

@VAPOR you can always sell if you want to use the mana elsewhere

@RemNiFHfMN at a loss though usually right

@VAPOR I am not a manifold expert, we can perhaps invoke a manifold moderator who can provide input here

@RemNiFHfMN I'm just confused about how it worked at all, let alone since rule changes, I'll just keep watching comments and I'll pick it up eventually, but if you have the power, by all means summon one of these "moderators" to our realm

@VAPOR afaik the mana system didn't change with the button, it just means you have to press it everyday or else you don't get your daily 4% loan on your current positions for the day(s) you missed

@VAPOR The way things are currently set up you would quickly get however much you bet returned back as loans, but you would have to wait for it to resolve to get your profit. You could indeed sell early to get part of your profit.

I'm hopeful the loan system will be tweaked at some point to allow long term profits to be realized in the form of loans
