In the twenty-second century, humanity came into contact with extraterrestrial civilizations. For the average person, little has changed. The planet continued to live its own life, and almost no one saw real aliens. Our neighbors in the galaxy were not interested in our minerals, living space, or anything else. There is so much of this in space that even a thousand generations cannot master it. Moreover, this is unprofitable - the Solar system is located too far away, at the very outskirts of the galaxy. In general, the aliens did not fly to us, and we did not fly to them. But few still got there. Including me. I am the first of my kind.
