}}A '''stasis cube''' was a form of [[Time Lord]] art found on Gallifrey, which the [[Eleventh Doctor]] described as a "little sliver of time" held in perfect stasis in a frame that was bigger on the inside than the outside, similar to [[transdimensional engineering]]. The result, according to [[Clara Oswald]], resembled a [[3D]] oil [[painting]]. It was possible for living beings to exist in these environments. | }}A '''stasis cube''' was a form of [[Time Lord]] art found on Gallifrey, which the [[Eleventh Doctor]] described as a "little sliver of time" held in perfect stasis in a frame that was bigger on the inside than the outside, similar to [[transdimensional engineering]].

It was soon revealed that the figures were [[Zygon]]s, who had used the stasis cubes to freeze themselves in [[1562]] and wait until the planet was more technologically advanced. This led to a meeting between multiple incarnations of the Doctor — the [[Tenth Doctor]], the [[Eleventh Doctor]], and [[War Doctor|the incarnation who fought in the Time War]]. | ||
Using the method of implanting themselves in stasis cube paintings the Zygons had been using, the Doctors froze themselves in the ''Gallifrey Falls No More'' painting in order to access [[UNIT]]'s [[Black Archive]] in the [[Tower of London]], which was [[TARDIS]]-proof, and avert the destruction of London by self-destruct during a showdown between the Zygons and [[Kate Stewart]]. The War Doctor likened [[Gallifrey]]'s preservation in a [[pocket universe]] to be, "like a painting", referring to the stasis cubes.
