As the days aboard the station pass, the astronaut begins to feel the weight of isolation more profoundly. Subtle anomalies, like unusual noises and faint alarms, break the routine and draw attention to the station's creaks and groans, almost as if it’s alive. While troubleshooting minor system issues and tending to the hydroponics, they reflect on the voices and energy of the station’s original crew, now long gone. The stillness becomes increasingly heavy, and the station’s symphony of hums and creaks feels both comforting and unsettling. Amid the monotony, the astronaut holds onto the hope of life—both in the plants they nurture and within themselves.
