Cryonics

Guest: Max More, PhD, President and CEO of Alcor Life Extension Foundation  Captain America, Han Solo, the astronauts in the movies “Interstellar” and “Passengers” are just a handful of characters who’ve been placed into suspended-animation and then brought back to life in science fiction. But there are actually about 300 people currently in a state of cryonic preservation and some 2,000 others who’ve signed up to be frozen as soon as they die. One of the main facilities where this preservation takes place and the bodies are stored is Alcor Life Extension Foundation in Scottsdale, Arizona.
