Slipspace field pod: Difference between revisions

'''Slipspace Field Pods''' are the [[Forerunner]] equivalent of the [[Cryo-chamber|UNSC's cryotubes]].  

They are visible via an afterimage seen within the pod, essentially a snapshot of the moment they "left" time. Although not technically in our space, those stored "within" the pods may be transported by moving the pods themselves. This method works as the Slipspace generator is located on each pod. If a person comes too close to the pod they will develop nausea, and a feeling of light-headiness due to exposure of an unshielded Slipspace field.  

Being in a Slipspace Field Pod, can be compared to getting sucked into a black hole, or what scientists think would happen if that were to occur. The gravity of the black hole distorts time the closer you get, at a certain point, stopping time for those affected (although a black hole singularity would probably kill a person), and if another person was watching, they would see you frozen in time. You are visibly there, but at the same time you are not, you are stuck in a vacuum of time, which might be what causes those afterimages, from the pods in [[Halo: Ghosts of Onyx|''Halo: Ghosts of Onyx'']].
