Don Gately didn't die. He made an appearance in the beginning of the book. Or the ending I suppose.

The rocket destroys the text. "Now everybody" is a cue to start the book over, along with "it has happened before but there is nothing to compare it to now" it takes us outside the novel's world and provides a God's eye view of humanity trapped in a cycle of perpetual self-destruction.
