2001: A Space Odyssey

A novel written by Arthur Clarke during the creation of the script for the film of the same name in collaboration with Stanley Kubrick!
A great classic of science fiction – for the first time entirely in Russian!

At the dawn of humanity, when hunger and predators threatened the survival of humans, a mysterious object appears on Earth – beyond the comprehension of primitive minds, but pushing humans towards discoveries that will change their evolution.
Millions of years later, the discovery of a monolith buried on the Moon puzzles scientists. To uncover its secret, Earth sends a specially trained expedition into space along with HAL-9000 – the artificial intelligence responsible for the operation of the ship and the safety of the crew.
But a series of small malfunctions leads the crew to suspect that their mission may not be what they thought it was.
