Things have been added to the original story that make no sense and make no sense to add: government black ops, wormholes, message from the future, ecological controversy over ocean vent mining, etc, etc. My own theory says that if you expect it to happen, there won't be a negative response, yet I am terribly angry at this mini series BECAUSE it was exactly what I expected. The problem is that I have anticipated this. Some horrible deaths and some fear of government conspiracy or terrorism is the only way tension can be achieved. People are dumber, science is a joke, people need to look good and the design must be perfect. Therefore it is normal for the book and the subsequent film from 1971 to focus on the science, on the formalism, on the way people think their way out of a situation. At that time, science was hailed as the pinnacle of human achievement and it was thought that anything is possible. During the late sixties, Michael Crichton wrote a novel about contamination with an alien microorganism.
