I prefer the original title of the article: "The secret of living to 200 years old". Does what it says. Not sure why it was changed.

Re:Following WWII, a plan to use a Nazi rocket to put a Briton in space

Thanks for pointing this out. I left 'Nazi rocket' in as I felt it was essential to the point of the article: A story about clamour to obtain wartime tech to repurpose for space exploration.
The reason for the change is simple. The one misleading term in the title is the word 'Briton'. A Briton is not a British person, but rather an archaic term for a Celtic person who inhabited ancient Britain.
I thought it would be FAR more click-baity to suggest an ancient Celt tried to reach space in a rocket.

This is so misleading. Even if it turns out to be true, this shouldn't be up here yet.
