cryo tank
Cold storage container
A cryo tank is a container designed to hold materials at extremely low temperatures, typically using liquid nitrogen or other cryogenic substances.
In medical and scientific contexts, cryo tanks store biological samples like sperm, eggs, or tissue for preservation.
In science fiction, the term often refers to chambers where humans are kept in suspended animation for long-duration space travel: The colonists were placed in cryo tanks for the journey to Mars.
