This looks like a private venture that was selected - along with 11 other ventures - for $100,000 in NASA funding back in 2013: https://www.nasa.gov/content/niac-2013-phase-i-and-phase-ii-...

Nothing more recent than 2016 on their own website for "human stasis": http://spaceworkseng.com/tag/human-stasis/

Why is this news?
