The explosion of a scientific center in Uranium City was not the first in a series of terrorist attacks on the territories of the Eatesqa race - someone consistently exterminated its scientific elite. The remains of nuclear physicist Gedimina Ket, who worked at the research center that fateful night, were identified by personal belongings; Along with Gediminas, the entire staff of the center died, everyone who knew at least something about its developments. Herbert Konar, a nuclear physicist from Los Alamos, was deeply affected by the death of his colleague. Together with Gediminas, his legendary reactor also ceased to exist - the first successful attempt to synthesize irrencium, overcoming its monstrous explosiveness. Gediminas’ experiments were never reproduced, and after several accidents, work in this direction was prohibited. No one in the solar system could have significant reserves of this substance suitable for creating weapons... or not?
