The Immortality Bus is a 1978 Wanderlodge that has been made to appear as a 38-foot brown coffin. The bus was used by Zoltan Istvan and various other transhumanist activists during his 2016 US presidential campaign to deliver a Transhumanist Bill of Rights to the US Capitol and to promote the idea that death can be conquered by science. The nearly four-month journey of the art vehicle from San Francisco to Washington, DC in 2015 had embedded journalists and documentarians, including those from The New York Times, Der Spiegel, The Verge, The Telegraph, and others.

  • The Immortality Bus is a 1978 Wanderlodge that has been made to appear as a 38-foot brown coffin. The bus was used by Zoltan Istvan and various other transhumanist activists during his 2016 US presidential campaign to deliver a Transhumanist Bill of Rights to the US Capitol and to promote the idea that death can be conquered by science. The nearly four-month journey of the art vehicle from San Francisco to Washington, DC in 2015 had embedded journalists and documentarians, including those from The New York Times, Der Spiegel, The Verge, The Telegraph, and others. On board the bus were drones, virtual reality gear, a 4-foot robot named Jethro Knights, biohacking equipment, posters about transhumanism, and nootropics for riders to try. An open invitation to anyone in America was made to travel on the bus. The Immortality Bus has become one of the most widely recognized life extension activist projects and has been featured in several documentaries and articles on the history of the life extensionist movement.
