An '''airlock''' is a device which allows passage between two areas of drastically different pressures and/or atmospheric composition, while preventing the exchange of gases and pressure. An airlock consists of a small chamber with two airtight doors in series, which do not open simultaneously. They are most commonly used on spacecraft, where they allow safe passage between the pressurized interior of the ship and the vacuum of space, though they can also be found in enclosed habitats on worlds with toxic atmospheres, for example.<ref>'''Halo: Fractures''', "A Necessary Truth"</ref> | An '''airlock''' is a device which allows passage between two areas of drastically different pressures and/or atmospheric composition, while preventing the exchange of gases and pressure.
