Kristine Kochanski studied astro-glaciers during her first year in the Space Corps, and she never thought she would see one up close. Three million years later, whilst on Starbug, Kris and her fellow crewmembers came across an astro-glacier and Kris was fascinated by it's "crystalline formations". Kris also noted that it was "allotropically modified, surrounded by an envelope of luminous gases."

Kris also noted that it was "allotropically modified, surrounded by an envelope of luminous gases." Lister and the Cat were not that impressed, but the Psi-Scan revealed the water in the ice to be clean, and Kryten suggested that they melt some of the ice to help with a looming drought aboard Starbug, Buried within the ice the Dwarfers discovered another Jupiter Mining Corporation spaceship, the Leviathan, which had been devastated by the Epideme virus and its engines overloaded in an attempt to flee something, but they later find out the Leviathan was actually racing towards Delta VII for a cure.
