Cryogenic stasis

Cryogenic stasis, otherwise known as cryostasis, cryogenic suspension, or cryo-freezing, was a form of stasis induced by exposure to low temperatures within a cryo-stasis chamber of some kind. For humanoid lifeforms, this caused sleep that appeared very much like death. Colloquially, the terms "cold storage" and "deep freeze" were also used to described this state.
