Stasis box

Stasis box

A stasis box was a relic from the ancient Slaver civilization. A type of storage unit, the box generated a field which held its contents in a state of perfect stasis. Nothing, not even time, could penetrate an operable stasis box. While exceedingly rare, these relics often contained artifacts from the Slaver civilization. (TAS: "The Slaver Weapon").

A stasis box glowed when it was near (within a few light years of) another stasis box. This made the stasis box the only known detector of stasis boxes.

Kerner Hauze had a stasis box among his collection on his starship in 2381. (LD: "Kayshon, His Eyes Open")

Items found in stasis boxes[]

Like many elements from "The Slaver Weapon", the stasis box was a prior invention of science fiction author Larry Niven and appears in his other works, including "The Soft Weapon".
