The Cryostasis Vault was introduced in August 2016. It is intended for crew members that the player wants to keep but aren't currently in use.^[1]

The Cryostasis Vault shows all of the crew you currently own and is a place where you can "freeze" immortalized crew (crew who are level 100, fully fused and fully equipped).^[2]

You're able to re-add frozen (dismissed) immortalized crew from the Vault to an open space in your Crew Quarters for a fee.

Currently, the costs to re-add a dismissed immortalized crew during a 24 hour period are as follows:

# of Crew	Cost per day
1st	100
2nd	150
3rd	200
4th+	300

The timer resets each day at Noon EST (17.00 UTC).
