   There is a bit of debate here, but most assign the first operational actuarial life expectancy table to the famed astronomer, Sir Edmund Halley of Halley comet fame. But Sir Edmund was also a brilliant mathematician and the basis of his actuarial table, as crude as it may appear today, is still the basic foundation for ultimately pricing life insurance itself.
