First published in Astounding Science Fiction (September 1940 issue) by Isaac Asimov. This Science Fiction Short Story presents a Xenofictional story where First Contact with Earth occurs from the aliens' perspective. Two sequels were written, "The Imaginary" and "The Hazing".A galactic senate meeting announces that the humans from Sol have reached Alpha Centauri through Faster-Than-Light Travel, making them candidates for induction into the galactic government of two hundred eighty-eight species/homeworlds of humanity.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Our main character, Tan Porus, is too busy working on figuring out why a squid from Beta Draconis IV is falls into a coma when exposed to a precise stimulus, and only that squid is affected. Studying this unusual physiological process is much more interesting than greeting the two hundred eighty-ninth society of humans to the galactic government, so Porus sends a minor flunky to do the job instead.The flunky returns with news of disaster; the humans of Sol are refusing entry! There's something wrong with their psychology. Tan Porus takes it seriously, and leads a large group of psychologists to Earth so that they can analyze the race that defies long-standing psychological laws.This story has been reprinted three times; Omnibus Of Science Fiction (1952), The Early Asimov (1972), and Urania (issue #626, September 1973).Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Alien Non-Interference Clause | |
| Homo Sol / int_867f9f5c | comment |
Alien Non-Interference Clause: The galactic government maintains rules where communication and travel into systems where Humanoid Aliens (including Earth humans) don't have Faster-Than-Light Travel is forbidden. Once we get to Alpha Centautri, however, the ban is lifted, and they send representatives to invite the Solarian System to join the Galactic Superpower. In this story, however, the representatives become convinced of Earth's insanity, and start arguing to isolate this species of humans from the rest of the galaxy. | |

20 Minutes into the Future | |
| Homo Sol / int_f32d85ab | comment |
20 Minutes into the Future: Despite the absence of any human calender, we can safely conclude this story takes place in the future because Earth has created a central global government and built Faster-Than-Light Travel spaceships. | |
