Space Odyssey influenced 2010: The Year We Make Contact
Added by Media Influence Map · 23 September 2026
The evidence
Adapted from Clarke's 2010: Odyssey Two, the second novel of the sequence, with Clarke closely involved. It answers the questions the 1968 film deliberately left open, which is the reason it is usually discussed as a different kind of object from its predecessor rather than as a sequel to it.
