Plot
The Cosmosecological Commission (KEK) urgently sends inspector Yanina to the distant planet of Geon to understand why vampires, native inhabitants of Geon attack the research expedition of the Concern Galax, and how to stop them. The development of mineral minerals Geones are promising from a commercial point of view, and the air is suitable for breathing earthlings, in connection with which the Concern is going to colonize the planet.
On the planet, Yanin becomes a victim of vampires, but his American colleagues (bearing obvious similarity to Schwarzenegger and Stallone) help him. They propose to play a plan developed by them - to lure vampires with a signal and shoot them. Yanin gives the right to conduct an experiment on the minimum signal power, together the cosmonauts fight vampires, but later Yanin decides to look for another way and goes to the reconnaissance. On the way, vampires attack him again, but he manages to recover from the disease they carry because of prolonged exposure to air. He meets representatives of a rational race, and they explain to him that vampires produce food for them and are an important part of the ecosystem.
Yanin realizes the unacceptability of further interference and stops the experiment, people close the base.
