命运号角

Once that’s under control, they can do a more involved procedure that surgically accesses the major blood vessels in your thigh and hooks them up to this guy:

接下来还有很多事要做，他们像做外科手术似的往你大腿主动脉扎这玩意：


That’s a heart-lung machine that takes care of circulation and oxygenation so they can stop the much cruder CPS. In addition to circulating your blood, the machine draws heat out of your body, cooling it to just above the freezing temperature of water, and replaces some of your blood with an organ preservation solution that supports life at super low temperatures (this is similar to how transplant surgeons keep organs alive when they have to transport them long distances).
这是一个心肺机，帮你做体循环和氧合作用，那个简陋的中央处理系统就可以拿下去了。除了血液循环，它还帮你的身体吸收热量，保持水在冷冻温度以下，用一种维持生命低温的器官保护液替换掉血液（就像移植外科医生远距离移植器官用的那种保护液）。

If you have to be flown to the cryonics facility, they pack you in ice and put you on board what they hope is not your last ever flight.
比如到时候你不得不飞到冷冻设施那，他们会把你放进冰里再上飞机并希望这不是你的最后一程。

Step 7) Get vitrified
玻璃化
Most people who know what cryonics is think it means getting frozen. It doesn’t. It means getting vitrified.
很多人认为人体冷冻就是把人冻住，其实是把人玻璃化。

Glass is weird. It’s not a typical solid because as it cools from its liquid phase, it never crystallizes into an orderly structure. But, as I learned when a bunch of commenters yelled at me about after I published this post, it’s not actually a liquid either, since it doesn’t flow. So, it’s neither a typical solid nor a liquid—it’s an “amorphous solid,” sometimes compared to a giant molecule. For our purposes, the key is that like a liquid, glass doesn’t crystallize—rather, as it cools the molecules just move slower and slower until they stop.
玻璃很奇特，它不是一种典型的固体因为从液态冷却到固态的结晶是不规则结构。但是我发表这篇文章时候一些评论说玻璃也不是液体因为它不流动。既然玻璃不是典型固体也不是液体，和大分子物质相比较那就是非晶体固体。我们认为主要是玻璃像液体一样不结晶，冷却时候分子运动越来越慢直到停止。
