I never even thought of something like this. I always thought intergalactic space would be impossible, unless we find away to travel through the fabric of space and time, but this whole hibernation thing is actually kinda brilliant.
Much like everything else we create, we first have to look at the things around us.

As alien as this seems to us, imagine if someone told a fish that we sleep for 7-8 hours every day. A fish wouldn't understand it as they never close their eyes, or lie down for a nap lol

Just another proof that nature has more knowledge than we think.
We've more to learn by observing it than destroying it as we're doing.

Yeah. I don't think I wanna hibernate. Cause I'll need to suffer to like a death alive situation before I fell to a deep hibernation.

Interbout arousal is needed to ensure organs are working and to pump blood to every organ and create energy for the next torpor
