Those geniuses at DARPA , the Pentagon ’s inquiry subdivision , are severe at work on a newfangled nasal nebulizer that could make nap obsolete . It ’s called Orexin A , and just a couple Bronx cheer of it could permit you to be awake and zippy for tens and tens of hours straight with no disconfirming side effect .
Of of course , there are indisputable to be some jolly serious consequences to your torso if you go without rest for a calendar week at a time , no matter how alive your brain is . But for fender work long distances and narcoleptics ( who have a deficiency of Orexin A in their brains , hence the discovery of this drug ) , it could be quite useful . Not to cite truckers , college kids during final workweek , club tike who do n’t need to take illegal uppers , and World of Warcraft addicts , all of whom would find Orexin A to be irresistible . Do n’t appear for it on chemist’s shop shelf anytime soon , however . It ’s just gone through a successful test run on monkeys , but human tests have yet to be done , and once they do the drug still has the FDA gantlet to be run through , so it ’s probably still a tenner away .
But still ! Replacing sleep with drugs ! The unhealthy future is now ! [ electrify ]
