"Do it. Prepare for V's propulsion." We were ready to give everything to get there.

Mission Control, us in dataless for looking at a red planet, and we knew we'd have to fight even harder if we wanted to stay.

"How far did we overshoot?"

"75.3 km."

Mission Control confirmed the Rover's 2,000 killers over maximum payload. The odds are we won't make it, but no matter what happened, we'd do everything we could to make the workshop module our new base camp.

Because the thing that kept us pushing wasn't just inside us. Our species has always been driven to build beyond what we know. We migrated across all of Earth, created settlements, constructed cities, and when we finally left our home planet, we knew the risks involved.

As we set sail, we asked God's blessing on the most hazardous, dangerous, and greatest adventure on which man has ever embarked. However, will is a double-edged sword. Again and again, it's taken us farther than we ever thought we could go.
