The Land of Crimson Clouds (Russian: Страна багровых туч) is a 1959 science fiction novel by Soviet writers Boris and Arkady Strugatsky, set in the Noon Universe. Plot summaryA spaceship, propelled by a prototype photon engine, sets off for Venus, which at that time, is an enigmatic and unexplored planet covered by clouds. The tasks of the crew are a) to test the prototype engine in field conditions and b) to locate and set radio beacons on the s.c. "Uranium Golconda" (a place with incredibly large heavy metals deposits), presumably, found somewhere on the second planet of the Solar System. As the crew ventures into the depths of Venus, unknown dangers take them out one by one, so only four of six return home after accomplishing the mission — all badly damaged, both physically and mentally. However, their feat was the first milestone in colonizing Venus and the first step into the 22nd century. {{Noon Universe}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Land Of Crimson Clouds, The}}{{1950s-sf-novel-stub}} 8 : 1959 novels|1959 in the Soviet Union|Debut novels|1959 science fiction novels|Soviet science fiction novels|Noon Universe novels|Venus in fiction|Space exploration novels |
