Why did the crew of the Covenant NOT want to go to hypersleep? - Yellow Pikachu Plushmascot

When the signal from David's planet is discovered in Alien: Covenant and the crew is contemplating whether they should go and investigate, it seems like one of the strongest arguments supporting the idea is the possibility of NOT going to hypersleep vs the option of sleeping for over 7 years heading to the original destination.

Why is it? Why do the crew so strongly NOT want to go to hypersleep?



Best Answer

Their original captain (the James Franco character) was burned alive when his sleep pod malfunctioned during the emergency wake-up. So it's understandable that they'd be skeptical about getting back into the pods.
