Biography
Sorenson found discovered rich veins of minerals on the planet with which he could refuel the Morestran sun. His monomania concerning this scientific pursuit, coupled with the deaths of all seven of his fellow expedition members left him some mental derangement, which was immediately noticeable to Vishinsky's landing party.
This party came from a Morestran probe ship, captained by Controller Salamar, that had come in search of Sorenson's expedition. He brought his mineral samples on board the ship.
Sorenson refused to believe the Fourth Doctor's warnings concerning anti-matter, and when Salamar ordered the samples to be returned to the planet, he took one and hid it on the ship.
However, the anti-matter infected him, causing him to kill Morelli, De Haan and Reig. At first he tried to control the transformations with a vaccine he created, but eventually succumbed completely. When Salamar tried to kill him, he was killed instead but not before causing the creation of more anti-matter monsters which began killing more crewmembers.
Sorenson was cured when the Doctor returned the last anti-matter sample to the planet. He then suggested that Sorenson look into using the kinetic forces of planetary movement as an alternate energy source. (TV: Planet of Evil)
