โฆ Synopsis
Maxim Kammerer is a young amateur space explorer from Earth,
regarded as a failure by his friends and relatives because this
occupation is not considered to be a serious pursuit. The novel starts
when he accidentally discovers an unexplored planet Saraksh inhabited by a humanoid race. The atmospheric conditions on Saraksh are
such that the inhabitants believe that they live inside a sphere. The
level of technological development on the planet is similar to mid-20th
century Earth. The planet recently came through big nuclear and
conventional war and the predicament of the population is dire. When
Maxim lands, the natives mistake his small spaceship for a weapon and
destroy it.
