Plot

Still reeling from recent tragic events, Sarah Jane faces one more shock as Josh stands revealed as her secret guardian angel.

When the truth behind Duke Guilliano's manuscript emerges, the dying Sir Donald offers her a place on the world's first commercial flight into space from the Nevada launch site codenamed Dreamland. He has been working on this flight since 2001, which is the key to the White Chapter's plan to intercept the rapidly approaching Mandragora comet. She accepts – convinced that the Doctor had a reason behind his decision to return her to Earth. But she wonders whether she will find what she has been searching for, out among the stars.

Following a sabotage attempt on take-off, Sarah Jane is marooned in space. But something is approaching the spacecraft. [2]
