Floyd (William Sylvester)’s Timeline and Summary

Dr. Floyd flies to a space station where he has a layover.
There, he calls home to check in and has a quick chat with some Russian colleagues.
The Russians wonder what is going on at Clavius base as they have heard rumors of an epidemic, but Floyd says he isn't at liberty to say.
Floyd's next flight takes him to the moon.
Floyd has a presentation before the Clavius base staff. He thanks them for their sacrifices in maintaining the cover-up story, reassuring them how necessary it is.
Floyd flies out to the dig site to see what the Clavius base personnel dug up.
There, he finds a monolith identical to the one we saw in the "Dawn of Man" chapter.
The crew poses to take a picture right as sunlight caresses the monolith. The artifact emits an ear-splitting radio transmission.
