在2017年最火大片之一的《外星人》中，人物可以将他们的身体保存在冷冻箱内。现在，中国的科学家们已经采用这种技术保存尸体用作日后复活。
Zhan Wenlian, a 49-year-old female who died from lung cancer on May 8, donated her body for China’s first scientific cryogenic project. The project, which was initiated by the Yifeng Academy of Life Science, a medical company in Jinan, Shandong province, aims to bring the dead back to life after preserving their corpses, “waking” them up when medical technologies are fully developed, according to Chengdu Economic Daily.

A special anti-freezing solution was injected into Zhan’s corpse, while special medical equipment such as respirators is being used to ensure the physiological functions of the body. The corpse itself rests on the world’s only cryogenic bed, which cools the body’s temperature to -190 degrees Celsius. Scientists from both China and U.S. have taken part in the project, collecting data and information for future research.
