The presence of a mothership is supposition, and is not reflected in the actual text. This supposition is perhaps based on the description of the ship Adam and Paul are in as a "scout-boat" rather than as a "space-ship." At no point do the two scouts mention the loss of a mothership or express regret at the loss of life (crew/friends/colleges) that would have been killed with the motherships destruction. It would perhaps be more accurate to say that their ship is damaged by a near miss, and forced to crash-land.
