[[Professor]] [[Gagan Rassmussen]] invented the [[Morpheus pod]] on the space station in the 38th century. Sometime after this event, the [[sleep dust]] on the eyes of the people who used Morpheus turned into the [[Sandman (Sleep No More)|Sandmen]], which completely enveloped the crew and transformed them into creatures of their own kind. Rassmussen, at this point a Sandman, devised a plot to spread the Sandmen throughout the solar system, by using the same encoded signal inside Morpheus that created Sandmen out of the sleep dust. He did this by orchestrating a scenario filled with plot twists and a climax on board for dramatic effect "like a story", and send a video of this story with the signal. | [[Professor]] [[Gagan Rassmussen]] invented the [[Morpheus pod]] on the space station in the 38th century.
