While the team struggles to communicate with Jerry, increasingly bizarre and deadly events occur, including the appearance of impossible sea creatures that Halpern claims cannot exist (such as shrimp with no digestive organs), confirmed when Jerry informs them he is "manifesting" the creatures.Īt this point, members of the team start to die in various attacks by giant squid, and the dwindling band of survivors struggle in their dealings with the unthinkably powerful, childlike, and temperamental alien entity.
Immediately afterwards, the team is contacted by an intelligent, seemingly friendly alien entity that calls itself "Jerry."Īt first, Jerry communicates with the scientists using a numeric code transmitted to the habitat's computer. Adams is found and returned to the DH-8 Habitat where he awakens with a terrible headache and little-to-no memory of how he opened the sphere or what occurred while he was inside.
Meanwhile, on the surface, a Pacific cyclone forces the supporting Naval ships to evacuate, trapping and isolating the scientists on the ocean floor for five days. Remaining behind after the rest of the team returns to the habitat, Adams succeeds in opening and entering the sphere. Reasoning the ship's future builders were apparently unaware that it had already been found in their past, Adams becomes convinced that the team will not survive to report their discovery. In a large cargo hold, the team discovers a mysterious spherical object that is clearly of extra-terrestrial origin. The robot is unable to open a hatch leading further inside, forcing the team to don pressure suits and explore the spacecraft. spacecraft constructed in the future and sent through time, appearing on the seabed at least 350 years before its creation. After their arrival and subsequent pressurization to the habitat's exotic-gas environment, the Navy sends a robot to enter the spacecraft first, which locates and opens a panel near the spacecraft door.Īs the robot's cameras focus on the opened panel, labels in English indicate the spacecraft is actually a U.S. The other scientists arrive safely at Habitat DH-8. Navy personnel, travel to a deep sea habitat at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, where an enormous spacecraft has been discovered.ĭuring the descent Levine becomes claustrophobic and is returned to the surface.
