One Under the Sun
1
...about the upcoming launch of the
Samsara International mission to Mars.
Sources within the European space
agency, speaking off the record,
have confirmed that the upcoming
International mission to Mars
could be in jeopardy,
after last week's assassination
of Chinese President Tzang Wanzhou.
When NASA defunded
its extra-planetary projects
as part of the 2024
agency restructuring,
China's national Space administration
stepped into a leadership
role in the Samsara mission,
amid rumors that the PRC's involvement
is a cover for its military ambitions.
NASA's Samsara liaison continues to deny
that the mission has been compromised,
insisting that the Samsara
mission's International crew
is united in their goals and focus.
I believe we can
and return them safely to earth.
And a landing on Mars will follow.
And I expect to be around to see it.
Like the scientific missions
based in Antarctica,
Samsara exists outside of politics.
As the world mourns
mission commander Robert Liu has
met with all the agencies involved
to reassure them
that the fight will go on.
Man will step foot on Mars
before the end of the year.
- Where is she?
- In the lab.
- You left her there alone?
- She's fine.
Bianca's doing the blood work.
- She likes Bianca?
- Yeah.
Yeah, she does.
Okay, let's go.
Kat... Kat.
What... What?
- No!
- Without Amelia.
- No!
Kat... We need to hear
what he has to say.
I'm sorry.
You said it was gone.
What I said was
that it was in remission.
We always knew
that there was a chance...
You said it was gone.
It's never that simple.
Explain it then, huh?
Feel free to use short words.
- The tumors have spread...
- Tumors?
As in more than one?
What are our options?
Chemo, surgery, radiation, what?
- I'm afraid...
- None of the above!
I'm gonna be in the lab with Amelia.
All available personnel to the ER.
Kathryn's been under a lot of pressure.
I can imagine.
And now this.
It must be very frustrating
to come so close and then
have to step aside,
to hand over your place
She's not stepping aside.
We all agree.
Kathryn's going to Mars.
How long?
There's no way of telling, you know.
In cases like this...
Amelia.
Her name is Amelia!
So this is where the party is.
Daddy!
We're all done here,
but you may want to swing by the
cafeteria to get some juice, okay?
'Cause I took a lot of blood.
Cras-ras?
Oh, I know, I know, I know.
Pickle juice and strained Sauerkraut!
Sound good?
No. I want to go home.
I'm tired.
Oh, baby.
Piggyback ride, hmm?
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
Come on.
Oh, yeah!
- Bye, Bianca.
- Bye.
Thank you.
Before I met you,
the only constellation I could
name was the big dipper.
Everybody starts with the
big dipper, and Orion.
Amelia asked me
for a telescope for Christmas,
so she could see you on Mars.
I'm thinking maybe you should get
it for her birthday instead.
Doctor said...
Doctor said that we should appreciate
the time we have with her,
whether it's three weeks or three years.
Three years?
He said three years?
He was that specific?
- He said three years?
- It could be longer.
I won't be back for three years.
It could be longer, he said.
Amelia's strong.
She's a fighter.
- She's like you!
- Like me.
I mean, what kind of mother
abandons her dying child?
You are the greatest mother
And the greatest wife.
You don't just belong to us.
