As quickly as possible - as it is now apparent that Rama will speed past earth and back out of the solar system toward the unknown - an expedition is sent to investigate the amazing artifact. ![]() Christened Rama, the object is a massive cylinder, rotating rapidly on its central axis. ![]() What's more, close examination determines the anomaly could very well be artificial, a suspicion that is soon confirmed.
