Yu was quite happy when he found that the astronaut outfit he was currently wearing was almost the same as the astronaut outfit he always wore when he was in his simulation realm. Not heavy, not bulky, except for the helmet he wasn't wearing which might have limited his vision.
"No matter what happens," said Alina, "you'll be a hero to us, Yu."
The two people who paired this and that on Yu's outfit nodded in agreement with Doctor Alina's words.
Yu couldn't help but smile because right now he didn't know for sure what he was feeling about the journey he was about to take in a few minutes.
"This is a new history for mankind," said Alina. "You always tell me that your life is meaningless. But, you are wrong, you mean a lot to science, to mankind."
Yu was quite moved to hear those words come out of Alina's mouth so that his eyes became teary.
"Thank you."
