Lena Sokolov dreams more of glory in space than of the typical life on Earth. On the ISS, she and her colleagues encounter an alien who could enter the planet within the cosmos or aliens, or spell doom for its current inhabitants.
Comment with some minor spoilery bits:
What's working is the solid interaction once the alien enters the ISS, wearing the identical uniform they are all wearing. What ensues is a debate that feels fresh and twisty and philosophically relevant.
The opening and character isn't as strong until the appearance of the alien, but that makes a solid 85% story.
