3 appearances
Purpose
To seal and pressurize the cryogenic chamber containing human stasis pods, preventing environmental contamination and physical intrusion.
Significance
The failing door transforms from a routine structural barrier into the fulcrum of disaster—its collapse lets the alien grub loose to slaughter the crew and derail the entire Nerva mission. The door's destruction forces Sarah to confront her ethical limits in triage scenarios.
