Red Dwarf (s01e01)

The End


In this pilot episode, menial worker Dave Lister on the spaceship Red Dwarf finds himself three million years in the future after accidentally overstaying his time in a stasis room where time does not exist. In contrast to a long sleep or cryogenics, traveling via stasis is actual time travel. —Michael Main
The stasis room creates a static field of time. Just as x-rays can’t pass through lead, time cannot penetrate a stasis field. So although you exist, you no longer exist in time, and for you, time itself does not exist.

                emerges from a time stasis room.
