Wolf Edmunds' makeshift grave
Dr. Wolf Edmunds was a particle physicist[1] and astronaut for the Lazarus missions. He visited a desert planet that would be named after him.
History
Sir Wolf Edmunds was selected as one of the twelve scientists sent out to explore the galaxy beyond the wormhole with the Lazarus missions. Before he left Earth, he and Amelia Brand had developed strong feelings for one another. Years after their separation, Brand's feelings for Edmunds would remain an influence in her life and would factor into the decision for the Endurance to fly to Mann instead of Edmunds out of concern that Brand's choice to go to Edmunds had not been made based on scientific reasoning when both planets appeared to be equally viable.
Amelia burying Wolf.
During his mission, Edmunds landed on a planet in a system with a black hole. Finding the planet's conditions would be favourable for supporting human life, Edmunds sent a signal back to NASA on earth. He subsequently settled into hypersleep to await NASA's response. During this time, a rockslide occurred and destroyed his shelter, causing Edmunds' death.[2] As result, the signal that Edmunds sent stopped transmitting approximately three years before Brand and Cooper's delayed return from Miller's planet.
After a disastrous journey to Mann's planet, the remains of the Endurance with Brand and CASE are sent to Edmunds as the Endurance's last hope to find humanity's new home. Upon Brand and CASE's arrival, they find Edmunds' destroyed pod and bury him before beginning Plan B to colonize the planet.
