Johnson Space Center, on the shores of Clear Lake, 35 kilometers southeast of Houston, Texas.
By the time John Ansen landed, it was already past ten in the evening. The Space Center's special car picked him up from the airport and took him to a hotel near Space City to rest for the night. Without having breakfast, John Ansen rushed to Building 1 of the Johnson Space Center at seven in the morning.
At this time, Space City was empty, with only some night security guards. The staff didn't start work until ten, and visitors weren't allowed in until that hour as well. In Johnson Space Center's entire Building one, only one office light was on.
Dr. Collins was waiting at the entrance of the building. As the head of the medical team at the Johnson Space Center of NASA, John Ansen was their specially appointed expert consultant.
After showing their credentials to the night security guards and completing the necessary security checks, Collins led John Ansen to the medical team's office.
