A '''Cryo-chamber''' is a chamber that allows all [[UNSC]] non-essential personel to be frozen for long periods of time. They are basically large metal pods with form-fitting gel beds where the personnel are frozen until they are "needed". [[Master Chief]] makes his first appearance in [[Halo 1]] inside a cryo-chamber. | A '''Cryo-chamber''' is a chamber that allows all [[UNSC]] non-essential personel to be frozen for long periods of time.

The cryo-chambers are usually stored in their own areas of the ship. Each cryo-chamber will hold an individual for as long as necessary, provided they use a [[Bronchial Surfactant]], and can be ejected prior to a ship landing, thus saving some crew from harm to be recovered later. [[Spartan-058|Linda-058]], after being severely injured during the fall of [[Reach]], was placed in a cryo-chamber in the ''[[Pillar of Autumn]]''. Prior to the ship's landing on [[Installation 04]], her cryo chamber was ejected, and she was picked up by the [[Master Chief]] at a later date. | The cryo-chambers are usually stored in their own areas of the ship.

However, in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], the Master Chief emerges from the cryo-pod completely fitted in his armor, using Spartan training to ignore the pain. His enhanced physiology presumably allows for a quick recovery from superficial pain and injury such as this.<ref>[[Halo: The Flood]], page 21</ref> | However, in [[Halo: Combat Evolved]], the Master Chief emerges from the cryo-pod completely fitted in his armor, using Spartan training to ignore the pain.

It is unknown whether The Covenant has a similar technology, but it is likely considering the vast distances of interstellar space their ships likely need to travel. | It is unknown whether The Covenant has a similar technology, but it is likely considering the vast distances of interstellar space their ships likely need to travel. Even though Covenant ships are much faster than UNSC ships, slipspace travel is still not instantaneous. | ||
