Synopsis for "Mystery in Space"
The Planetary team is in Zambia at a secret base. A strange alien construct has been found floating in space, past the range of conventional crewed spacecraft. Elijah decides to send in "the angels." Jakita is unhappy that Snow has been so secretive about the hidden base. The angels, captured by Snow when they arrived in Germany in the 1930s, are aliens that feed on information. Snow intends to send them up to investigate the alien construct. He also wants them to get a look at Jacob Greene, who Snow believes The Four will send for their own interest.
The angels are fired into space in yet another alien spacecraft that Snow confiscated in 1951. The Drummer elaborates on his theories that the "century babies" are the life protection system of the multiverse. Arriving in the alien construct, the Planetary team are able to view what is happening through the angels' eyes. The construct is a gigantic alien vessel, the inside of which is dominated by a massive fossilized throne the size of Manhattan. The interior of the ship resembles a primordial environment, with tribes of people scurrying across the ground. The team theorizes that the ship has been abandoned for so long it's developed its own ecosystem.
The angels then fly into the next compartment to find a massive fossilized alien corpse, with a village living beneath its foot and all manner of lifeforms moving across the surface of its skin. As the Planetary team goggle at the huge body, another spacecraft pulls up to the vessel.
"Finally", Elijah says. "Jacob Greene."
