Part 2/7:
As our story begins, we find the spacecraft named Longshot stationed in Earth's orbit, eagerly awaiting the signal for its historic launch. This moment marks not just a test flight, but the dawn of a new era in human exploration. The mission is clear: to journey at light speed to Mars and deploy satellites essential for setting the groundwork for future colonies. Inside the spacecraft, only one astronaut, Ethan, prepares for an event that could define the trajectory of humanity's future.
