Arthur C. Clarke, 1968
A black slab buried on the Moon sends a signal toward Jupiter, and the crew sent to follow it must trust a computer that has begun to think for itself.
Clarke wrote the screenplay with Stanley Kubrick while the novel was still in progress; the film and book were released in the same year, 1968.

He was prepared, he thought, for any wonder. The only thing he had never expected was the utterly commonplace. Arthur C. Clarke, 1968
