Inside was a wealth of partially decipherable information about a distant planet and its bizarre inhabitants. After Kate and her team publicly the existence of intelligent life beyond Earth, they faced death threats from religious zealots; her apartment was bombed; and a team member was shot. What else could possibly go wrong? In the wake of a dispute over the capsule's ownership, she was arrested and charged with three federal crimes.
