After a journey of sixty trillion kilometers, Konyechny arrives at the new world.  And there are surprises waiting. Some of them are good.

Some connections are lost, but some new ones are forged. Chris climbs out of a hole and Nadia throws a party. And one of the longest-held mysteries of this entire adventure is finally explained...  

Can Marcus and Sophia -- with help from Nadia -- get Chris back inside the ship before all of his air vents out into space? Can Mac be persuaded to look for something every other scientist on Earth has missed? And could Dr. Mason finally be losing his one and only mind?
