Two societies developing in isolation over generations are presented, one in a tanker at the bottom of the sea and the other in an alien starship approaching Earth. The potential war between Earth and the aliens is avoided through contact between those in the tanker and the other two. Both the undersea society and the alien society have eutopian elements, with the alien society the more complex one.
