Cryostasis Chamber

The Cryostasis Chamber is a machine designed to place a subject into suspended animation by lowering their entire body temperature to absolute zero (-273.15 ˚C, or 0 Kelvin).
==History==
===Winter Soldier===
After successfully brainwashing super soldier Bucky Barnes to be their assassin, HYDRA had him cryogenically frozen in a cryostasis chamber to preserve his longevity and prevent him from aging. For nearly seventy years, HYDRA would awaken Barnes from his cryosleep to perform assassinations before returning him to the chamber to sleep.
===Winter Soldiers===
In 1991, Howard Stark managed to recreate the Super Soldier Serum, prompting HYDRA to send Winter Soldier to assassinate Stark and his wife Maria, and retrieve the serum. In an effort to expand on the Winter Soldier Program, HYDRA injected their most elite death squad with the serum, converting them into Winter Soldiers. However, Stark's serum had side effects, which included mental instability, causing the Winter Soldiers to attack indiscriminately. As a result, HYDRA had the Winter Soldiers placed in several cryostasis chambers. The Winter Soldiers remained asleep in the chambers for nearly twenty-five years, before they were killed in their sleep by Helmut Zemo in 2016.
===Abomination===
Following the Duel of Harlem, Emil Blonsky was imprisoned in a cryostasis chamber in Alaska. Phil Coulson threatened Grant Ward to post him to guard Blonsky in his cryo-cell on the night shift if his sexual relationship with Melinda May had adverse effects on Coulson's Team.Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 1.13: T.R.A.C.K.S.
===Carl Creel===
Carl Creel was placed in a cryostasis chamber after Phil Coulson incapacitated him with a modified version of the Overkill Device. Coulson delivered Creel in the chamber to Glenn Talbot inside a van. He warned Talbot that the chamber's power had less than an hour before it deactivated because it needed a more stable power source.Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.: 2.02: Heavy is the Head
===Hibernation in Wakanda===
After being granted sanctuary in Wakanda, Bucky Barnes was placed in a cryostasis chamber at the Wakanda Medical Center until they could find a way to remove the HYDRA brainwashing and programming within his mind.
