Or Maybe We'll Just Freeze People

And right as we start speculating about hibernation, somebody manages to cryogenically freeze...and safely revive...a human.

The technique has nothing to do with space travel. The idea is to give ER doctors more time to save a dying patient...a couple of hours rather than a few minutes. It's possible that the time limit will be too short for a trip to Saturn.

But it's a proof of concept. (And, even more important, will save lives here on Earth).
