The first cryonic storage facility has been recently opened in the village of Alabychevo, near the town of Solnechnogorsk, some 50 km northwest of Moscow. The facility is expected to store frozen brains of those who wished to be immortal.

Staff at a museum of regional studies in Solnechnogorsk found it difficult to give an answer to the question put by Komsomolskaya Pravda correspondents: Does the museum have any records relating to the activity of sorcerers or necromancers in the old village Alabyshevo? We asked around locals but they could not unearth any legends or tall tales about “witches poisoning cattle and putting the evil eye on the people.” Looks like locals have no traditions of fighting evil powers. Anyway, spokespersons at the company KrioRus are reluctant to advise the local residents about the plans of the company. The company leased an old school building in Alabyshevo this April. The building has no signboard above the front door. There is a barbwire fence enclosing the building. Speaking of the fence, the lessee seemed to do the right thing because some people might really think that KrioRus is involved in black magic operations.

In the next fifty years, the company will store dead bodies and heads of those who wished to live forever.

Equipment for the production of liquid nitrogen - the Dewar flask - was delivered to Alybashevo late April. Equipment looks like a kind of Thermos for nitrogen, capable of holding 250 liters of nitrogen. Several portable heat-insulating containers were also brought in. After all pieces of equipment were put in place, two human brains were immersed in the Dewar flask filled with liquid nitrogen. The brains will be stored at an extremely low temperature of 196 degrees Celsius until new technologies enable scientists to implant them into the head of some computerized human being or an ordinary human donor. Thus a new host will inherit knowledge and habits of a former host. Two Russian nationals have already opted for the above method of reaching immortality. The owners of KrioRus are confident that more customers will shortly make arrangements with the company.

“The names of ten customers are already sitting on our waiting list,” says Danila Medvedev, director general of KrioRus. He apparently enjoys talking about the number of customers. “We are ready to take a customer’s brain for storing during an indefinite amount of time. Should a customer wish to preserve his body in its entirety, we will deep-freeze it and ship it to the Institute of Cryonics, which is in the United States ,” adds Medvedev.
