Have made a district map - geological and topographical. Have spent geophysical investigation of bowels of Venus in this
area...
- But the data is indistinct and insufficiently full, - has rushed into speech of the commander Jurkovsky. - Having possibility to
obtain much more exact data...
- We have no such possibility! - Ermakov has rapped out.
- How so - it is not had?! - I have already told. It is ready to repeat. Waters remains on four days.
Communications are not present. Position "Hiusa" on a bog is unsafe. The campaign in the Smoky sea under our conditions
is adventure. Any serious malfunction of the conveyor can lead to a failure of all business. Besides...
- At what here adventure, so far as concerns the government task? - Jurkovsky has jumped. - to us have charged the most
crucial business, and we carry out it only half. Same a shame! When still people here will come!.
- If we return, they will come soon and if we remain here - never... Or in twenty years! Dauge has told negromko: - After all
you promised... You have agreed to this campaign after the equipment raketodroma...
- Yes, I was going to investigate the Smoky sea if there will be on that a possibility. But this possibility is not present. To risk
results of expedition I do not intend.
- Risk! Again risk! - stormed Jurkovsky. - I am not afraid of risk! Tell everything, Anatoly Borisovich, but you not in forces to
make us cowards! (Ermakov has involuntarily shuddered: it were its own words.) the primary goal of expedition will not be
executed! - not so, - has interfered with dispute of Bulls.
He has unexpectedly recollected the conversation with Ermakovym at the very beginning of flight and at once has
understood the reasons forcing the commander to be cautious.
The geologists, got used to that Bulls usually does not interfere with conversations on this theme, with astonishment vozzrilis
on it. Only Ermakov has not moved.
Bulls prodolzhal: - the Primary goal of expedition not in it. You badly remember the committee order. Test of "Hiusa" - here the
primary goal.
