Did you see his face?
Yes.
What person?
Who was it?
It was a child.
What child?
Had you seen him before?
No, never.
In any case, not that I remember.
When I flew closer to him,
What do you mean?
I couldn't make it out at first.
Then I saw that he was
unusually large. Gigantic.
He was about four meters tall.
He had blue eyes
and dark hair.
Perhaps you're not feeling well?
We'll postpone the meeting.
I'll continue.
He was naked, absolutely naked,
like a newborn.
He was wet, or rather, slippery.
His skin was shiny.
He rose and fell like the waves,
but he was moving by himself.
It was disgusting.
I'm sorry.
I'll jump ahead a little.
There isn't much more.
Burton's statements appear to be
the result of a hallucinatory complex
brought on
by the planet's atmosphere,
as well as symptoms of depression
exacerbated by inflammation
of the associative zone
of the cerebral cortex.
This report in no way,
or in almost no way,
corresponds with reality.
What do you mean "almost"?
Excuse me, I'm not finished yet.
Professor Messenger
offers a different opinion.
He believes that Burton's statements
could be founded in reality
That's it.
I saw it all with my own eyes.
I would like to offer
another opinion.
We stand on the brink
of an enormous discovery,
on the observations
of a man without
any scientific qualifications.
Although any researcher
may envy this pilot,
his presence of mind,
his gift of observation.
Moreover, in light
of recent information,
we are morally obligated
to continue the exploration.
I can understand
how Professor Messenger feels.
I understand him.
But let's take a look
at the road we've traveled.
Solaristics is exactly
where it began.
Years of work have been in vain.
Everything we now know
about Solaris is negative
and has come to resemble a mountain
of disjointed, incoherent facts
that strain credulity.
We're in exactly
the same situation today.
Solaristics is degenerating.
But what we're talking about
is far more serious
than just the study of Solaristics.
We're talking about the boundaries
of human knowledge.
Don't you think that
by establishing artificial barriers
we delivera blow
to the idea of limitless thought?
By limiting our movement forward,
we facilitate moving backwards.
I nevertheless repeat my question.
What do you mean by saying
the report of my observations in almost
no way corresponds with reality?
I saw everything with my own eyes.
What do you mean by "almost"?
"Almost no way" means
that some real phenomena
could have triggered
your hallucinations, Burton.
