The plot depicts of a young writer (Jeremy Theobald) who follows strangers in London hoping to get material for his first novel but gets caught up in the criminal world when he failed to maintain distance. On the ice planet, the explorers make a surprising discovery: a Chinese base camp, covered in snow and apparently abandoned. It turns out that the Chinese had stumbled on the wormhole at around the same time the Americans did 50 years earlier, and sent off its own manned mission to the planet without Brand’s team realizing it.

Cooper finds himself in a room with a bureaucrat who asks him why he released the creatures on earth. It is explained that it was against regulations and that the fractal creatures could not be contained and took over the planet. Earth from space now looks like a glowing mass of ice. Cooper asks to be enrolled in the exploration fleet; the administrator explains that is very unlikely. Most of the positions are for robots, and there are a huge number of trained applicants and very few human positions. Coop asks for a spaceship to go in search of Brand, who has been missing for over 200 human years. Cooper is denied and instead shown a cornfield on the station where he can spend his days. And just like the movie, Cooper steals a ship from the space station hanger and goes in search of Brand. Fleming, Mike (April 9, 2013).

Brand instead wants to continue exploring to try to find another place where human life could thrive, but Cooper made a promise to his son Murph that he would return, so he must try. Brand gives Cooper half of the fractal life-forms to double their chance, as a species, to survive.
