Uhmmm Professor. Maybe that advice is kinda late.
Professor Rocket.
Hmmm...Right.
Noname
How about the mission Professor.
Professor Rocket.
Ahhhh...Our mission is to land safe on the planet called Earth.
Professor Rocket.
And this is how we should do...
Chapter 2: The Meeting
Professor Rocket.
All of you...Volunteer Astronaut are here to complete our mission which is to explore the planet called Earth.
Purp
Excuse me! Professor Rocket.
Professor Rocket.
Why? young astronaut.
Purp
Why do we need to explore the planet called Earth.
Professor Rocket.
Well...what a wonderful question. My boy, As you can see our planet which is the Kepler is slowly polluted and over population is an issue nowadays.
Professor Rocket.
So, we need to explore far beyond to find a new home. Like this planet called Earth.
Noname
Can we show them the Planet Earth for more information.
Professor Rocket.
Of course. They need to see what is Planet Earth look like.
Noname
Everyone this is the Planet Earth.
Oren
Wow...its almost the same as planet Kepler 186f
Yello
Well...yeah our planet bit brown. I think?!
Purp
Can I see our planet Kepler 186f look like? Mr. Noname.
Noname
Well...Yes, of course.
Noname
This is the Planet Kepler 186f.
Noname
This is the comparison between Planet Earth and Kepler 186f.
Ryid
Well our Planet is the same as Planet Earth. Look closely, The Planet Earth is a little bit greener.
Vluu
Yeah...Its green and Earth doesn't like to suspects other planet.
Gleen
Hahahaha...It's that a joke Vluu?
Phink
I think it is a joke!
Ryid
Well Earth is green but your mind is more greener.
Yello
Ohhhh...thats gonna burn.
Vlak
Hey...stop it you guys!
Brunette
Yeah...stop it😑 I'm kinda bored now.
Noname
Okay...Professor Rocket. Please procceed to next session.
Professor Rocket.
Okay...Now listen all of you. Before you can go to outer space you need to get know about space, gravity and etc. Which means you need to train harder.
Noname
You all heard Professor. You must passed the training in order to keep safe on outerspace.
Oren
Hmmm...thats interesting🤔
Gleen
What training do we need to passed. Mr. Noname?😊😊😊
Noname
Hmmm...good question. Well...you need to passed these requirements.
Purp
What are those requirements? Mr. Noname.
Noname
First, applicants must have a bachelor’s degree in engineering, biological or physical science, computer science, or math.
Oren
Hmmm...I already passed that😊
Noname
Well...theres no need to worry about that since it's not considered because you are all Volunteers for the EEE. Experiment Explore Earth.
Purp
I thought I would passed too.
Noname
Next is the...It may surprise you to learn that there are no age requirements for being an astronaut. (Of course, you have to be old enough to have met the professional requirements and able to pass the physical.) The typical age range spans 26 to 46-years-old.
Noname
Well...your all passed for that. I think😊
Gleen
Hehehhe...maybe I'm not 😅
Noname
Lastly, Physical requirements. There is also no specific body type required to be an astronaut, but you do have to fit in the spacesuit—called the extravehicular mobility unit—that the astronauts wear to do spacewalks.
Oren
Hehehe...This is my favourite requirements.
Purp
Hmmm...Okay just need to fit on the suit.
Wyte
Is there a suit for me?🥺
Noname
Of course, all of you have.
Professor Rocket.
Now...move on our next phase. Which is the teamwork groupings.
Purp
Hmmm...what is that suppose to mean?
Noname
Ehhh...Professor, means that every each of you have a team.
Noname
Yes, A team. Each of you will have a team that supervise you all the time.
Ryid
Hmmm...Why do we need a team?
Vluu
You didn't listen. Mr. Noname said "Each of us has a team to supervise us". Tsk...tsk...
Noname
Let me explain more. Okay😅...One of you will have a team. There are two people will supervise you in case your in a problem. And those two person are also a scientist.
Professor Rocket.
I need to go now...Mr. Noname. Please continue our mission session.
Professor Rocket walk immediately and vanished.
Noname
So, lets back to the topic...Each of you will have a two person and each team will determined to their colors.
Brunette

Noname
I've also prepared a box which inside is a papercard that have the list of color that you need to pick.

You know Ryid, I meet Vluu at a park crying to the point that his eyes are red.
Ryid

Ryid
(Wow...this girl is annoying)
Phink

Ryid
(This girl is really annoying. I need to hurry cleaning myself)
Phink

Ryid
So what if I break up with him. He is the one who cheated at me.
Brunette

Wyte
Okay...I'm done cleaning myself. I'm out😶
Phink
Well...Do you have any evidence that he cheated like kiss someone or something?
Ryid
Huuuu😠...Didn't I tell you that he cheated on me by texting some women.
Phink
Okay...I knew it. You are the problem. You know what...Vluu is a nice person. And you made him cry because of some jealousy.
Ryid
(That is not the reason why I break up with him. It's just I was worried that I was just being heavy to him.)
Ryid was just standing thinking about something and Brunette and Oren done cleaning.
Oren
Okay...Ryid aren't you done yet?
Ryid
Uhmm...just go ahead. I will be right back at you.
Ryid

Ryid is crying on the bathroom.
Ryid

Brunette
What the heck...are you talking to yourself girl!
Ryid
Wait...I thought you are gone.
Brunette
I knew it. You can't move on ehhh.
Brunette
I know it's your fault because you let him go. But deep inside you still love him.
Ryid
Ahhhh...I hate myself. I'm busted and it's embarassing.
Brunette
Don't worry girl. I'm here to help you move on. Okay.
Brunette
No...I was just suprise that there is a dumb girl who let go her birdy and she think that it would comeback😆😆😆✌️
Brunette
Hehehhe...sorry. Now lets get ready.
Brunette
Ready to move on!
Hello I'm the author...what the heck is happening here. How this would turn on into this crazy romance thingy. We need to go back on track where everyone is lying dead.
So, everyone already eat their breakfast and they went to the head campus.
Professor Rocket.
Everyone already know their perspective team. And now we need to move to the next phase.
A wind passed by that result into silence.
Noname
Uhmmm...Sir, Professor!?
Professor Rocket.
Ahhh...Sorry, The next phase will be an exercise training.
Professor Rocket.
You need to ride these spinning things. Like this
Professor Rocket.
This one is centrifuge.
Purp
Hmmm...I need to experience that.
Gleen
Me too. I want to ride that. Because I didn't ride a rollercoaster before.😅
Yello
Gleen, Are you kidding. That's not a rollercoaster.
Yello
Well...its aaa...Yes, It's an upgrade version of rollercoaster.
Purp
(Hmmm...this kids nowadays)
Phink
Then, what is that thing would do?
Professor Rocket.
KASA used the concept of centrifuge when astronauts were training for the initial giant leap to the moon. Today, on the International Space Station, much smaller centrifuges are used to conduct science investigations.
Brunette
Hmmmm...interesting🤔
Professor Rocket.
And also you need to passed this last training.
Professor Rocket.
The Multi Axis Trainer.
Noname
Okay...let me show you the spinning chair. Known as Multi Axis Trainer.
Vlak
Wow...amazing, I've never seen of that before.
Oren
Well...all of us didn't see it too.
Gleen
I've seen it already.
Yello
Wow...where did you saw something like that Gleen?
Gleen
Well...I've seen it now!
Yello smack Gleen from the back.
Yello
I'm asking serious here.
Gleen
Well, I also answered it seriously.
Oren
Then what is that thing do? Mr. Noname.
Noname
The Multi-Axis Training simulates a spacecraft/aircraft tumble. Participants ride strapped and suspended in a chair assembly inside three tumbling rings. Participants tumble simultaneously through all three axes and rotate, somersault, and roll all at once rapidly. A staff member controls the simulation at all times.
Oren
I didn't get it! so long explanation.
Purp
Well, it helps you to experience gravity just like when you summersault or tumblings.
Oren
Ahh...Okay. Still don't get it.
Professor Rocket.
Now...Are you ready. For the training exercise.
Noname
Of course, Professor. They been waiting for an hour now.
Professor Rocket.
Okay...then pair up!
Ryid
Wait...what?! Pair up
Professor Rocket.
Yeah...pair up! There are 10 of you right. Then it's Even.
Ryid
That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about why do we need to pair up!
Professor Rocket.
Well...You need to pair to watch others back. Welp...we can only use the centrifuge 5 times and it can carry two people too.
Professor Rocket.
Now Pair Up!
Everybody got pair up, but the pair up is messed up.
