Annica nodded, reaching out to squeeze her friend's hand. "I know, Miky. And I'm grateful to have you and the others by my side." She glanced over at Decca, Peter and Taylor, who, despite their past rivalries, had forged a cautious camaraderie in the face of their shared goal.
"Let's show them what we're made of," Decca said, her eyes alight with determination.
Taylor, for once, offered a genuine smile, all traces of her usual envy and resentment replaced by a newfound sense of solidarity. "Damn straight. This is our time to shine."
The countdown began, echoing through the launch pad, and Annica felt her heart racing. She knew the risks, the stakes, the sheer magnitude of what they were about to attempt, but in this moment, all that mattered was the unwavering conviction that had brought her to this point.
As the engines roared to life, Annica spared one final glance towards the observation deck, where she could make out the figures of her parents and her younger sister, Anastasia, she flashback with a mix of trepidation and pride.

Drawing on her expertise and the trust of her teammates, she devised a bold, unconventional solution that not only saved the mission but cemented their status as a formidable crew of astronauts.
As the spacecraft touched down safely on the lunar surface, Annica and her friends emerged, battered but triumphant, their eyes shining with a newfound sense of accomplishment. The weight of their achievement was palpable, not just for them, but for the countless others who had dreamed of this moment.
