Review Summaries
"When he is called to a plane crash site in the Pacific psychologist Norman Johnson has no idea what is in store for him. Usually his job is to counsel the survivors and the victims' families. But this time is different. There is no debris to be seen and he learns after a while that there was no plane crash. He was called in to be part of a top-secret expedition of the US Navy to the bottom of the sea to investigate a space ship that has been buried there for 300 years. "
Colin Kreiger, Resident Michael Crichton Scholar

"There are a few scientists in the story who go down under water and stay in "cylinders" for the duration while exploring the spaceship. At first they think it is an alien space craft, but then find out it is an American Space Ship from the future and it holds a sphere...they finally open it. It gives them the power to do what they think, it causes destruction. "
Miki Hirano, Resident Michael Crichton Scholar

"A group of scientists are gathered together to study a newly found vessel below the oceans surface. A habitat has been place next to the ship to allow them to study. What they find inside the vessel, is that it is an American ship sent back from the future. They also find a perfect sphere that the ship seemed to be transporting. When they finally open the sphere, it gives them they ability to have whatever they think, happen in real life. They go on a tremendous fight to save themselves from each other. When the finally reach the surface, they get together and decide to all think that they never had these powers and never remember that they had them for it almost got all of them killed. "
