In the waiting room where the final preparations took place, the three astronauts had completed their final physical examinations and were chatting easily.
Already nearing the start of their mission, they are the first astronauts to return to the moon.
In their hands, there are also descriptions of the experiences of the astronauts who landed on the moon.

They had no experience, and the moon was a completely foreign place to them.
Having previous experience is of great help to them.
The importance and significance of this mission are extraordinary.

Today is a turning point in history, which is of extraordinary significance.
If they succeed, they will gain a place in the future competition for energy resources.
Taking the lead also proves that they are still strong after decades.
"When we go to the moon, which one of us would be better off first?" Van Artives spoke.
He is the oldest and most experienced of the three astronauts.
He has been to the International Space Station many times and has also performed space walks.

The two colleagues on both sides of him are also experienced astronauts.
"this is a problem."
The youngest-looking astronaut on the left tilted his head.
"People only remember the first person. Everyone in the world knows that Armstrong was the first person to set foot on the moon.

This weird guy didn't have a good impression on him.
Since arriving at the launch center, he hasn't spoken much, his behavior is very irritating, and his emotional intelligence is negative.
If it weren't for his terrifying research and development capabilities, Jim didn't even want to see him.
He was a dignified NASA director. When the two of them were together, he seemed to be working as Kane's follower.
This made him very unhappy and humiliated.
But this guy was indeed very powerful, commanding the rocket assembly. It went surprisingly smoothly.
The various inspections were meticulous, and several small problems that other staff members ignored were found.
"Need not."
Kane shook his head, and after finishing speaking, he went back to the command and control room.
