Escape pods are devices aboard the ship able to hold crew and allow crew to jettison in case the need to leave the ship arises. Escape pods can deploy once crewed and will launch the occupant away from the ship and into space, where they may be able to be retrieved later on.[source?]
Some ships integrate escape pods with sleeping quarters, e.g., the Constellation and the Freelancer.[source?]
