    The president is briefed about a discovery on Mercury - a plant that produces water through respiration. His brother, an astrophysicist involved in the Mercury expedition, documents the findings in his journal. They consider bringing the plant to Earth to address water shortages. However, a deadly bacteria came with the plant and caused a global pandemic, killing many humans. Eventually the bacteria died off as it could not adapt, but the human population and developing life on Mercury were devastated.
