It's a narrow fit, the ventilation shaft not having been designed to be traversed by anyone or anything except airflow. On more than one occasion the drone wobbles and bumps into the walls and ceilings and requires Tosh to manually correct it's propulsion. Finally he reaches the end of the shaft and with it the panel covering it. It's not perfectly flush, otherwise how would the air get into the room, but it blocks at least some of the view. With some maneuvering of the drone Tosh manages to get a downward angle that at least shows at least part of the room.
It is only lit by the operational lights of Cerebra, casting everything into a mix of blue hues and jagged shadows. The inside of the door has some kind of mass piled near it, some of it spread out along the wall to the left and right of the door for a couple feet. It takes a couple moments for the camera to focus and resolve the masses into what they are. Bodies. At least two dozen of them, scattered against the door and wall. All of them look hauntingly familiar. Multiple copies of all four of them seemingly having been dashed against the walls. The least recognizable one being Will, who seems to mostly have been turned into a complete smear, though here and there body-parts remain sticking out of the clay.
At the center of the massacre is the foot of the Cerebra pedestal, console lit up and running though the angle can't get a full view of the capsule itself.
