The crew will be made up of androids, and the commander must evaluate the work of his unusual team. To accomplish the flight, pilot Pirx is chosen, who is known for his honesty and integrity. His ill wishers from the corporation are afraid that Pirx’s opinion might upset the profitable production, so they take measures…Pirx wins in the confrontation between a human being and androids.
