You gotta be kidding me! How can they do that?! A cyro chamber that WORKS?!?!?!
<grin>

That's the thing, it was a stasis chamber.

And it worked flawlessly.

For three million years, I believe it was. Long enough that the ship
was 3 million years away from human settled-space, assuming humans
even exist-- long enough that the cats in the ship's hold evolved...

If you've never seen it, catch Red Dwarf sometime. It's kinda like
Doctor Who in that it's severely underfunded and shouldn't be taken
seriously... and completely unlike Doctor Who in that it doesn't take
_itself_ seriously...

it's a great show...  For a while, Israel's channel 2 had it on midnight
on friday's - but they took it off...  I think it didn't do too well.  I
first saw it here, in DC, when I was visiting :P

*grin*

there's no kind of atmosphere
I'm all alone
