Cryogenic hibernation technology represents our vision of the future of wireless, including extended lifespan, interplanetary travel, and the treatment of terminal illnesses. As early as 1972, the Alcor Foundation was established, which performed the first human cryosurgery in 1976, and was the first human cryosurgery organization to be established. Currently, more than 100 people have been cryosurgically treated. According to Fortune magazine in the United States, Alcor's clients include many billionaires who have donated large sums of money to the foundation to subsidize its research on cryonics.
