Spoilers ahead
Dr. Jeff Peters is a guarded, emotionally restrained scientist who regards others as intellectually inferior and longs for the solitude of deep space. He conceives a radical solution: the Ulysses android, a perfectly human-like clone of himself designed for long-term space missions where there would be no need for social contact. The project hinges on a machine that can mimic human emotion well enough to survive years of isolation, something Jeff himself struggles to do in daily life. As the lab’s doors close behind him, the android becomes the stand-in for the experience Jeff cannot tolerate, offering a chance to explore the cosmos without sacrificing his own psyches.
