Cryogenics studies extremely low temperatures, while cryonics preserves human bodies after death for future revival. Cryogenics has practical applications, such as preserving food and blocking water flow, while cryonics is popular in the futurist community. The process involves vitrification to avoid ice crystal expansion. Whether it works remains to be seen. Cryogenics is the scientific […]
Cryonics involves preserving animals or humans at very low temperatures to halt the decay process, with vitrification being a modern technique that rapidly cools the patient without ice formation. Critics argue that medical science may never advance enough to revive a vitrified body, but proponents cite molecular nanotechnology as a potential means of awakening cryopreserved […]
