Okay but he saw them depart and head toward the surface, no? What's the alternate theory here? They started down toward the surface but then went and hid somewhere instead? Where was there to hide that wasn't on the surface? And was the Eagle's ascent stage even capable of lifting off and flying back to the Columbia if it wasn't launched from a grounded platform?
