William Shatner plans to boldly go where few have gone before, reveals a source, becoming a supercentenarian with the help of the latest in science advances!
"He genuinely believes he can make it to at least 110 if he keeps looking after himself and stays mentally engaged," dishes the source. "He's immersed in learning about all the possibilities, spending hours reading, listening to experts and following breakthroughs. William seems convinced we're living through a period where people will be able to extend their lives longer than ever."
According to the source, the Star Trek legend, 95, appears especially invigorated after "being pulled back from the brink" during his stage 4 cancer battle.
Now in remission, Shatner — who was diagnosed back in 2023 — required surgery and two years of immunotherapy to eradicate the malignant melanoma that had spread to his lungs and brain, per People.
"He's feeling absolutely fantastic these days and has confidence that he's still got decades ahead of him," shares our source. "He's got far too many things left on his bucket list to start thinking about slowing down."

William Shatner reflects on surviving stage 4 cancer and overcoming personal struggles, including poverty and loss
Shatner and his daughter Melanie, also a cancer survivor, are launching a podcast about living fully and embracing the present
Melanie tells PEOPLE how surviving cancer helped her overcome anxiety and fear in her life
No matter what he was facing, William Shatner has always believed the universe would take care of him.
Such was the case when he was diagnosed with metastatic malignant melanoma in 2023. "'They said, 'You got cancer. If you came in later, you would have been dead.' Yeah, see? That's my life,'" he tells PEOPLE exclusively in its latest cover story. "I think I have a vibration, which is what the universe apparently is — all vibration. This is nothing."

William Shatner and his youngest daughter, Melanie Shatner Gretsch, were both fighting separate stage 4 cancer diagnoses at the same time several years ago. It was a terrifying chapter that the two are only now fully opening up about after both becoming cancer-free.
The pair told People that Shatner Gretsch, 61, was already about a year into her stage 4 breast cancer diagnosis when her father learned that he, too, had cancer.
In June 2023, the Star Trek icon learned he had stage 4 malignant melanoma that had spread to both his brain and his lungs.
"I remember vividly thinking, 'I don't have the strength to take care of myself and lost my father at the same time,'" Shatner Gretsch shared.
She also recalled a time during her chemotherapy treatments when she called her father, telling him, "I think I'm dying."
