Many have never heard of the hero of this book, although he was the son of the great physicist Pyotr Kapitsa, a famous geographer who contributed to the solution of many scientific problems.

Andrei Petrovich Kapitsa managed to make one of the most important geographical discoveries of our time - to predict the existence of a giant freshwater lake under the ice of Antarctica, which allows him to rightfully be called the "Columbus of the 20th century".

The life of this outstanding scientist, full of travels and searches, losses and gains, is told in his first detailed biography, which was created by Mikhail Slipenchuk and Alexey Shcherbakov based on the family archive of A. P. Kapitsa.
