Stasis

NotesImages

Cryostasis

Universe : Prime Timeline
Name : Cryostasis [1]

A method of preserving living things by freezing them. Cryostasis is in theory quite simple, and has been used by some societies as a method of artificial hibernation over long periods. There was a brief fad for it on 21st century Earth, with those near death being frozen in orbiting satellites so that they could be revived when cures for their medical conditions were possible. The Enterprise-D encountered such a satellite adrift in deep space in 2364, and succeeded in reviving three of the occupants. [1]

Other forms of stasis don't rely of low temperatures to achieve a suspend in bodily processes. Some of these include the Federation stasis pods from the 2370s. [2] Deep space nine was fitted with a stasis chamber which was used in the morgue to prevent the decay of dead bodies. [3]
