Because thats what Earth is in: a fight against a sinister alien force so technologically advanced that there seems little hope. Thats why he disobeyed his orders in the first place to figure out a way to stop them. But now hes beached.
Which is just what Konstantin wanted.
For the super-AI has a plan: connect Gray with the Pan-Europeans, and set him on a course to the remote star Deneb. There, he is to make contact with a mysterious alien civilization using the new artificial intelligence Bright Light, and maybeif they can make it in timeprevent humanity from being wiped from the universe.
