The story is based on real events that happened on the eve of the collapse of the USSR. The main character, who is engaged in the conversion of the military-industrial complex, is faced with a paradoxical situation when the city leadership sends him on a business trip with a man who claims that he represents a group of scientists who have developed a UFO in contact with an alien intelligence. Understanding the absurdity of what is happening, the hero of the story still tries to understand the task assigned to him without losing his sense of humor. However, at a certain moment he realizes that things are starting to take a sharp turn, and he is no longer laughing. Any coincidence with real living or living people is purely coincidental. About the author: born in Rostov-on-Don in 1956 in a family of Spanish emigrants, grandson of the legendary Spanish pilot, aviation engineer.
