'''Steffi Ehrlich''' was a [[Germany|German]] astronaut born in 2021, and was a member of [[Bowie Base One]].
'''Steffi Ehrlich''' ([[2021]]-[[2059]]) was a [[Germany|German]] member of the group on [[Bowie Base One]] from [[July]] [[2058]] to [[November]] [[2059]]. She was the senior technician of the crew.


She studied physics at RWTH Aachen University, eventually gaining a doctorate in solid state physics (2046), before taking two post-doctorate positions at Argonne National Laboratory (in [[Chicago]]) and the University of California. In [[2048]], she was selected to join the German astronaut team in the [[European Space Agency]].

Shortly after her second child was born, she was selected for the Bowie Base One mission. She initially refused to leave her family but changed her mind after an unspecified event that devastated many parts of Germany. She and the other members of Bowie Base One met the Doctor on 21 November 2059, the same day the attack on the the Flood began.

During the Flood invasion, Steffi witnessed three of the crew become zombie-like water monsters. After Margaret Cain was infected, Steffi, Mia Bennett and Roman looked through the medical dome camera at Maggie, with Steffi wondering what she had become. (TV: The Waters of Mars)

Infected by the Flood[[edit] | [edit source]]

Just as Steffi and the other members of the crew were preparing to escape, the infected Andy Stone and Tarak Ital climbed the maintenance shafts in the main dome, walked to the centre of the roof of the control centre, fell to their knees and exuded more water from their hands and mouths through the girders in the roof. Water quickly pouring into the room managed to separate Steffi from the rest of the crew, trapping her, with the Flood attempting to break into the room. She hid in Section 9 of the main hub and was unable to get out.

Knowing she soon would be infected, Steffi watched a video of her two children just moments before the water came into the section. Crying as the water gushed into the section, Mia and Adelaide witnessed her becoming infected.
