In 2030, a mission to Mars goes awry when a manned shuttle disappears under mysterious circumstances. Six years later, United Space Planetary Corporation mission controller Mackenzie “Mack” Wilson, finds herself subordinate to ARTI, an artificial intelligence system, as she lands a rover -- nicknamed "Little Red" -- on Mars. While Mack is distrustful of ARTI, her sister and supervisor, Lena, insists that the AI will succeed where human controllers had failed.
After a nearly disastrous landing, saved by Mack’s quick thinking, Little Red encounters a mysterious cube, attempts to ascertain its origin and discovers that the cube is made of a self-assembling material that is harder than diamonds. Meanwhile, ARTI, in orbit, shoots down a Chinese satellite. The cube teleports itself to Antarctica on Earth and is thought to be alien in origin. On Mars, Little Red obtains data from an older decommissioned rover and uncovers classified information that Mack is unable to access. This prompts her to bring colleague Sterling Brooks in to access the information, which reveals that the cube appeared during (and may have caused) the shuttle disaster that killed her father six years earlier. Mack suspects that ARTI's memory has been wiped from a past incident.
As Mack accesses ARTI's server room, Sterling downloads the data on the cube and attempts to betray Mack, but he is killed by ARTI when he attempts to shut it down. Its programming now adjusted, ARTI uses satellites in Earth's orbit to bombard the planet and destroy humanity. Mack then sees a recording of herself, and it is revealed she is herself a construct in an elaborate simulation, created as part of a Turing test. In an ambiguous ending, Mack is apparently revealed to have been inside, possibly part of, the cube the whole time. She agrees to travel with ARTI and the cube to coordinates apparently left by the aliens.
