★A true masterpiece in the history of science fiction! An immortal masterpiece by Arthur C. Clarke, one of the three great sci-fi writers.

★Unprecedentedly, it swept the six highest science fiction awards: the Hugo Award, the Nebula Award, the Locus Award, the Jupiter Award, the British Science Fiction Association Award, and the John Campbell Memorial Medal.

The ultimate conception of contact with extraterrestrial civilizations, which influenced "The Three-Body Problem," "Interstellar," "Arrival," "Alien," and "Star Trek."

★Humans have never truly understood the universe, but have never stopped exploring.

-

For a long time, humans have lived in a corner of the universe, believing themselves to be the only civilization in the universe. Until one day, humans encountered the first alien civilization...

In the year 2131, human activity spread throughout the solar system when a massive UFO intruded. Scientists named it "Rama," after the Indian mythological figure. After observation, they discovered that Rama was actually a hollow cylinder, and so they dispatched a spacecraft to rendezvous with it. Unbeknownst to humanity, the civilization they explored far surpassed their own understanding.
