β¦ Synopsis
An unidentified flying object has been shot down from the sky-and a single strange pod has survived intact.
Now Team Proteus-a U.S.-Russian crew of scientists, doctors and technicians-will be reduced in size using new miniaturization techniques and injected through the surface of the pod. So begins the most startling voyage of exploration in human history...
Inside the body of an alien.
