Part 4/8:
As John and Mac traverse the frozen landscapes of the alien planet, John becomes increasingly aware of the harsh and isolating conditions. Despite breathable air, life seems non-existent—incredibly, the eco-system has not survived the planet's extremes. Desperate to return to Earth, John attempts to fix his damaged communication device, recording crucial observations about the planet while trying to identify the mechanics of time travel.
During their exploration, John notices the chaotic weather patterns, with fierce cold in one area and excessive heat in another. This juxtaposition serves as a metaphor for John's internal battle—simultaneously feeling lost while desperately seeking a way back home.
