I still find myself reflecting on the photographs of the Artemis II that one of my alternates posted and getting a little 8it sentimental. It's wonderful watching earthlings slowly and gradually work their way through space. The last fly-8y around their lunar satellite was fifty years ago, and I find it really endearing how excited they were. It leads one to remem8er that at some point, even trollkind were taking their first few hesitant steps 8eyond our cosmos, and it's easy to take that 8eginning for granted when we were a starfaring civilization for hundreds of sweeps longer than humans. There was a time where, however 8rief, we looked up at the moon(or moons, depending on who you asked) and wished to see what we looked like from its perspective.
They have! Although, at least from my count, they've only 8een making headway on it for the past...roughly twenty five sweeps? So they're a *very* young civilization.
