A scientist deeply involved in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) through Project Argus. The narrative explores her complex relationships, particularly with her stepfather, the adversarial scientist David Drumlin, and her Russian colleague Vaygay Lunacharsky. The central plot revolves around the reception of a sophisticated alien message from the star Vega, initially containing prime numbers and eventually a complex diagram for building a Machine designed for transportation. The text culminates in the controversial construction of this Machine, the selection of five international crew members (including Arroway), and their subsequent journey through a hypothesized black hole or wormhole transportation system, which brings them into contact with advanced, yet elusive, "Caretaker" beings, prompting debates back on Earth about the mission's authenticity and implications.
