Is the Earth a planet? This is what all school and other textbooks say. But, alas, the “outsiders” do not think so at all, for whom the Earth is just an old-fashioned, long-decommissioned ship for the once famous Star Races! And the worst thing is that that now the aliens, having remembered the obsolete technology, intend to thoroughly clean this ship, sand it, paint it, sell it for debts and put it back into business! But... what about the people? This “aliens” does not care at all... if there is no earthling capable of declaring yourself as the official owner of this giant “kerosene stove” and, in accordance with galactic laws, dispose of your property. The law says: The Earth must be repaired, undergo a strict technical inspection and... take part in the next Star Race! And how do you order the unfortunate young guy Ilya, who by pure chance was declared the owner of our planet, to act in these circumstances? Something needs to be done. The only question is – what?!
