The planet is more than it seems, and on further investigation the scientists begin to suspect it has been artificially altered. But despite their suspicions the only life they can detect is on the surface, none of which has advanced far above the level of animals.

With Dorothy's arrival, however, they are in for some surprising discoveries. [less]
