- Include radiogramms, - he has demanded.
- It is necessary to have a rest, - the Belief has objected.
- And I speak - include! It has obediently included the tape recorder. He listened absent-mindedly, looking in a pure white
ceiling, thinking that "Hius", possibly, has already begun braking. Imperceptibly he has again fallen asleep.
Next days have passed easy. Krajuhin quickly recovered. The doctor has allowed to put a videophone, the telescreen at
bed and to start up visitors.
Till the late evening from radio station films with signals of "Hiusa" and reports of Ermakova arrived. Engineers, masters,
chiefs of services came and left. After a supper Krajuhin has seen newspapers, has included the three-dimensional
teleprogram of Moscow, has talked to Belief and Ljahovym and, habitually tired that is why definitively calmed down, has
settled to sleep.
In the morning in a room the Belief, pale, with the disarranged hair has run in, and is too loud, as it seemed to it, vykriknula: -
"Hius" does not submit signals! Has become silent at night... Has become silent... And... And...
Here is silent five hours...
It has seized hands for cheeks and is bitter, navzryd has begun to cry.
SPACE ATTACK "... Or novelists and newsdealers said lies, or our flight is not typical. In it there is nothing ` ` interplanetary".
All budnichno and ordinary. And at the same time... But this most ` ` at the same time "concerns already area of feelings and
experiences. If to address to the facts it is simply difficult to imagine that you are onboard a spaceship and that ours
planetolet with huge speed rushes to the Sun. Now, when I write these lines, Jurkovsky and Ioganych in a wardroom potter
over a card of hemispheres of Venus - so they name two circles on a standard sheet on which chains of red both dark blue
circles and the small specks shaded green are put.
The Jurkovsky has explained that red are the mountain tops authentically known; dark blue - two either noticed only two or
three times hypothetical either noticed only; green stains mark places where powerful magnetic anomalies have been
registered. And the big black blot - Golconda. It is all. Truly a mysterious planet! Over this card our astrogeologists sit hours,
verifying something with the records and squabbling in a low voice while Ermakov does not leave cabin to have dinner and
will not banish them from a table. Krutikov now on watch, in the next cabin reads Bogdan, having curtailed into three deaths
on a folding cot. It has not forgotten to be fastened - probably, a habit. As to Ermakova it was locked at itself(himself) and
there is no here a second hour. But about it conversation special... ""... So, for expired days no incidents happen.
