Astra.
Go to...
Hostile environment.
Danger for the entire planet.
Danger for the entire planet.
Viktor, come back!
Take it easy, boy.
What's this?
Victor Klimov!
Viktor Klimov! Help!
Nadezhda was killed.
Victor! Help. Nadezhda was killed.
Klimov, Klimov, what's going on?
Captain, we need Astra's help.
Biomass escaped from the Glan's institute.
It's rapidly growing and multiplying
by consuming anything organic.
It just broke out of the building.
It's a disaster for the whole planet.
We don't know what to do!
Get the ship ready!
Get the radiating guns ready
I'm coming.
Would you come with me?
Would you come with me?
Would you come with me?
Would you come with me?

Part 1
Neeya : Artificial human being
Second engine slow down. Speed 5 meters.
- Got it.
-Third sector; Are you ready?
-We need two more minutes.
It's a strange ship.
Look it up in the Somov's atlas.
It's not listed.
I don't understand.
What's up with Lebedev?
-Sergei; they're waiting for you in the
third sector.  Are you ready? -Coming
Remember, the ship is broken.
You'll have to work in vacuum.  Good luck.
Get ready.
We're moving through the hallway.
Can you see us?
See you fairly well.
What's there?
Just dust floating here.
The equipment compartments
are damaged significantly.
We could use some additional light here.
Can you determine the time of catastrophe?
At least a few months ago.
This was a laboratory.
Sergei; you're a contact specialist.
Does it remind you of anything?
I don't see any analogies so far.
-Who are they? Humanoids?
Without a doubt.
It's a strange camera.
It looks like a cloning laboratory.
-What makes you think so?
-They're all identical.
Damn it! They're all identical?
-Attention!
Sergei; why did you fall silent?
The very existence of the permanent
space laboratory,
and the presence of different stages of cloning
from 5 to 17-18 years of age
leads us without a doubt to make the conclusion
that all these specimens were grown in vitro.
That's why we thought it necessary
to have this meeting of the members
of the Contacts Council here,
on Earth's orbit.
It means that these people came from a test tube?
You could put it that way.
Why was the station located on a ship?
Did it have to be done in space?
I doubt it.
There is no contact.
This is too categorical a judgment.
We're obviously dealing with humanoid beings,
that are close to us.
We can hope for real contact
if we create optimal conditions.
Her brain is exhausted.
And the tests that we ran on the ship
in the last 20 days are not enough
to make any final conclusions.
But the anatomic and functional differences
from Homo Sapiens
are very insignificant.
You're not watching your son?
He'll forgive me.
I don't have a single free minute.
All my sperm whales have gone crazy!
and besides, from a biological point of view
it holds no fascination at all!
You know very well that Zagorsky
succeeded with cloning in the year 200.
Grandpa, you're a conservative-
she's from up there.
We're dealing with a alien kind of mindset.
The very principal of growing humans in vitro
must serve some secret goal.
Our task is to understand the goals
of this experiment
and until we do so
we must treat this creature as...
-As a girl.
To treat this
as a human being is foolish.
For all we know she may be
a source of danger for all humanity.
What do you suggest?
We'll quarantine this creature in our
institute of Cosmic Bio Robo Technics,
and will conduct thorough tests.
Tests of it's brain first of all.
When we'll understand everything-
then we'll talk about contacts.
I disagree with Nadezhda Ivanova.
Contact is a two-way street.
I don't argue, but it seems
