Marcell is detected in the Arizona desert unharmed but without any memory of what has happened. The realisation dawns that the presence of The Spheres has been completely misinterpreted as an attack, whereas they'd been sent to protect the earth. Suddenly The Spheres begin to change and form a protective barrier around the earth. Soon after Johnson awakes, the solar system is destroyed and the debris is spotted heading for earth in a planet-destroying event. The Space Agency is sceptical about Johnson's memories, although Laroux is hopeful this means Marcell is alive and The Void and The Spheres are not malign. On the earth, she met Jim Marcell who communicated to her that everything was going to be okay. She says the soldier looked fearful and kept looking at his arm, which detonated like a nuclear bomb.

She says there was a lot of light and when she closed her eyes the Human 2.0 soldier mysteriously transported out of the craft. Johnson wakes up and reveals what she remembers after the communications blackout. Tensions continue to rise on earth, and military organisation begin to attack The Spheres. They discover several years of memories have been made - far more than the week since she launched into The Void. Johnson is put unconscious into quarantine where scientists attempt to retrieve data from her brain. The ship looks like it has been in space for a very long time. Five days later the mission returns unexpectedly, but when the capsule is recovered only Johnson is in the craft, with no sign of the Human 2.0 soldier. Johnson and the 2.0 soldier launched into The Void, with Johnson reporting beautiful lights before disappearing. The US military also produces a Human 2.0 soldier to accompany Johnson on her mission, with this version containing unspecified weaponry. After struggling with her decision, Jessica Johnson volunteers to be the next candidate and this time the procedure is successful. However, the procedure to fuse Roberts' brain with the plastic body fails, and Roberts dies.

Some candidates considered for the project before wheelchair user and drone pilot Carl Roberts (Tom Christian) is selected. The US military argues this technology will allow the Space Agency to send an astronaut successfully into The Void. Human 2.0 was designed to fuse human brains with synthetic bodies to create more robust soldiers. A secret US military organisation offers its classified robotics technology - Human 2.0 - to help solve the Space Agency's dilemma. Concern rises about the threat posed by The Void and The Spheres. Strange orbs then begin to appear in the sky, and The Void starts emitting waves. The only feasible solutions he says are robotics or probes. Cold water is poured on Laroux's idea by astrophysicist Professor Jakob Brukiehm (David Bailie) who says it would be suicidal due to the gravitational waves.

She quickly raises funding for a full expedition. Despite resistance from her team, Laroux wants to send astronauts to investigate further. Cosmologist Jessica Johnson (Comiskey) argues that this could be a first contact event. Scientists give the anomaly the name 'The Void'. Communication with the probes soon lost, but data analysis reveals it might be a wormhole, with a planet-like structure on the other side. The Space Agency, run by Gillian Laroux (Perry) sends probes into the anomaly. Alex Grant (Barber), Head of Exploration Missions, reveals that this isn't the first time the anomaly had encountered, as it first appeared in 1990 when it was visible for two months before mysteriously disappearing. Communications disrupted, there is a power outage on the International Space Station (ISS), and an astronaut, Jim Marcell, goes missing (presumed dead). In 2019 an anomaly appears above the earth.
