stasis chambers
Hibernation pods, sealed
Stasis chambers are fictional devices that suspend biological processes, allowing people to survive long periods—typically space travel or waiting for future medical cures—without aging.
The concept appears throughout science fiction: The crew entered stasis chambers for the fifty-year journey.
Sometimes called cryopods or hibernation pods, they solve the problem of human lifespans being too short for interstellar distances.
