Hibernator
A hibernator is a special type of sleep module found on starships and is far more common than S.A. Modules. A hibernator slows its occupant's heart rate and metabolism down to a point where respiration (and therefore energy expenditure) is totally minimised. The occupant therefore needs no food or water, and only oxygen to survive.
A human being with no health problems can survive for many months in the hibernator, either until the oxygen in the system runs out or eventual starvation claims them. Unlike S.A. Modules, the hibernators allow people to dream and age.
