It begins in the twenty third century when start of the first colonial transport of Mankind has been carried out... Ten colonial transports, recently constructed on building berths of space shipyard, waited for the passengers...

Stars which it was not visible from a surface of the Earth covered by a smoke, seem illusive, far and unreal... Whether but here the life on that end of blind jerk through hypersphere is possible? Advertising approved: YES, it is possible...

It was the Great Outcome which has thrown out in uncertainty billions of people...
So Expansion of mankind to far stars has begun...

The spacecraft "Alpha" was projected counting upon fifteen years flight to system Protsiona (an alpha "Small Dog"). Start of mid-flight engines of the ship took place behind orbit Pluto.

Three photon installations, called to disperse colonial transport up to light speed, send on two third of planned capacity, when there was a supernumerary situation: behind a back part of "Alpha" suddenly there was a black tornado, in the inexplicable image braked weeds the ship, and several minutes later absorbed it.

The dark tornado has disappeared, as suddenly as well as has appeared, not having left One material fragment which would testify about Destruction of the case of colonial transport.

The catastrophic moment of occurrence of anomaly was fixed the equipment of tracking located in space, later it has allowed Scientists to understand an essence of the phenomenon which have occured on eyes of billions the spectators observed of start owing to devices distant Space communication.

Actually, the colonial transport "Alpha" which has got in a zone spontaneous hyperspatial transition, became the first the ship-defector...

In ten years, in 2217 on the basis of the theory developed the scientific astrophysicist, Joganom Ivanov-Schmidt, has been constructed the automatic prospecting ship "Vankor", which having made a series of hyperspatial jumps, finally has returned in borders of Solar system, having proved to that a opportunity movings of spacecrafts through anomaly of space-time.

....

So, the Earth. 2213.

The low, lead-coloured overcast formed smoke by evaporations, curled at height five hundred meters, tightening a gloomy veil average part of city of a megacity...

Here even illumination of streets, and has flown down-concrete walls in the afternoon is not switched off superskyscrapers form files completely automated, discomfortable and oppressing space, where total density the population person on one reaches a level of hundreds and even thousand square meter of the area of the basis.

Absolutely other picture opens to a look above a layer of poisonous overcast. buildings and the city communications rising above a mark five hundred a meter level, appear, are pulled out from a grey veil смога, being raised to heavens huge pyramidal complexes, where people of an average prosperity live. Between separate ledged buildings there is enough place for air transport, highways bend around inhabited complexes flat coils streamer, as if grey, for ever the become lifeless lianes which have scrambled on to walls of superskyscrapers in transcendental up. Still above, on flat the has flown down-concrete fields uniting architecture of the top part megacity, among the rarefied plumose clouds, under plastic domes the greens of greenhouses among which are located is seen separately costing houses belonging the most solvent citizens Terrestrial Alliance. A zone of smoky clouds which divides city on two unequal parts, it is uninhabited: buildings here have no windows, and transport arteries get a kind of tight tunnels. If below reigns a hell for billions, above, above the grey curling sea clouds, paradise, something similar to it, on concepts reaches if not the twenty third century, certainly. Here, above a cover of poisonous clouds, billions, and only millions elites live and work any more. Two the spaces of city levels divided by a lifeless layer, it is separated in everything as if the concept "height" became now not only in physical size, but also gradational mark of society. Everyone, living below, dreams to rise above an impenetrable cover smoky evaporations, and those to whom success, personal qualities or the right birthes have already allowed to reach the certain heights, naturally, are afraid to fail downwards, suddenly having rolled down on steps social ladder. Very few people recognized aloud the fears or aspirations, but even short excursion on a vertical divided in two giant city and a passing on its inhabitants sufficed to understand: a huge human ant hill correct ancient as the world of feeling, here goes present, uncompromising and severe struggle for a survival.

The hope dies last and when already borders of the states for a long time were erased, the nations and all has mixed up in a uniform boiler of a global overpopulation, in such situation any, in the slightest degree the plausible hint for the best life was good alternative to becoming ripe world war. A culm, for which involuntarily the reason of any person who though time lifted eyes to clinged to lead-coloured heavens where it is tempting shone illusive light stop-video, snatched out by equipment "Vankor" from a reality of others, the light years located for hundreds from the Earth, the worlds. And only narrow circle devoted knew, that the anomaly opened by Joganom Ivanov-Schmidt space, still it is not studied absolutely not, it conceals in herself not only opportunity to break a notorious barrier of speed of light, but also thousand others, unknown while laws and nuances. Hyper-navigation only it was necessary to open, and to do it it is necessary to crews of those colonial transports which advertising went on all information to channels of a planet. Whether other citizens of the Earth understood it? Or only guessed true underlying reason opening directly on eyes the steam valve of a civilization? But wishing to leave overpopulated planet it has appeared enough for prosperity of "firms-senders" on extent fifty with superfluous years. Each power line of anomaly space really conducted to really existing physical object star or, at least, planetary size, but whether here it is possible life on that end of blind jerk through hypersphere? Advertising approved: YES, it is possible. From people took money, carefully stacked newly made colonists in chambers of a is low-temperature dream, and then Colonial transports were towed for orbit Pluto, whence have started, sometimes on some ships in a month.

It was the Great Outcome which has thrown out in uncertainty billions of people.
So Expansion of mankind to far stars has begun.
