Uchuu Kyoudai: Number Zero Page #5

---

Why put me in such a compromised position?

Morning. Youre up early.

Only as early as you

thanks

Today's the end

hey, Mutta

Do you think it's someone who undermined their own project?

No idea

Absolutely no idea.

is that so?

perhaps if the underminers should meet

they should shake hands

group B's project is vandalised

merciless. Utterly merciless.

How is this so?

based on yesterday's logic

It must be retaliation from group A

No doubt, Furuya

What did you say?

Don't deny it

Venting your anger. Vengeance is yours, right!

I see

One has to explore all the possibilities.

are you that bitter and self-centred that you had to do this?

You're calling me self-centred, hypocrite

Let's stop this guys

It's even be possible that the true culprit may not be from A or B

There are six of us in this team

Stepping in to play hero again, Makabe?

Whether playing team leader or judge, you just want power.

I never agreed that you were the head of our group

I:

I never realised

You keep to yourself and become a lone rebel.

Your too immature to become an astronaut

Right back at you, Shorty.

Doesn't matter how many times I see this

It's amazing

Could we see similar things on Earth if there were no air?

Like this. sure.

But my eyes are getting pretty tired

The mountains over there, they are so clear

If your eyes are tired

I'll wake you up with my UFO story

Maybe Im tired of hearing Hibito's UFO story, too.

I know. But people say

my UFO sounds better on the moon

alright, alright. I'll listen to it.

But once we've found the missing module, ok?

Ok

I'll look for the probe using the manual. Where is it?

It's in the box under your seat.

Thank you

Damian Stop!

What!

Hibito, please report to the video phone room.

Mutta

yes

Please remain calm and listen

While on a lunar rover assignment

Your brother may have had an accident

We've lost contact with him and his partner.

NASA and JAXA are pulling their resources together to find them.

The intelligence is scant.

we are currently reviewing

our satellites to get more detail about the situation

That's the emergency

My apologies for interrupting your exam

If you pull out of the exam, your results will not be affected.

The choice to stay in the capsule or not

is yours.

Do not think of the worst

If it's any comfort

JAXA is well prepared for dealing with this type of scenario

Mutta

I don't know what to say

I can imagine

we'll be working closely with Houston on this

the suits they're wearing should keep them alive for 3 nights, at least.

I'll stay on

Are you sure?

Positive

I'll complete this exam

presently

Even If I leave

There is nothing I can do

I'm powerless to do anything

As it stands

I can't even get into space, yet

I understand and respect your choice.

This matter must not be revealed to the other candidates

We will continue with the capsule test

Understood?

yes

Are you okay Mr. Fukuda?

Im just a little dizzy

Hang in there, the exams almost finished.

Break it now and blame it on your condition

After all, you cannot present work that's accidently broken

Don't let Mr. Fukuda rest.

Now's not the time Mizoguchi

Oh look, the team leader has now become the teacher

Knock it off guys

Im fine

You should rest

It's okay

time's up

group A will give the first presentation

Done!

Mutta, it's finished.

Hey, can't you hear me?

Enough

it's concluded

we're done

I have something to say

I Mutta must say something

What is it?

Nothing, Kenji

It's kind of bleak

To let it end this way

Don't say it Mutta

Don't mention anything about the green card or your screwed.

Everyone

in fact, I

Shut up!

I:

When I came out of the video conference

I was just recalling

I once

saw a UFO

UFO:

It was on Japans national day that I saw it with my little brother

How can I describe it

It was round like this and flew ultra-fast.

Kind of like a fire fly on steroids

It then flew to the moon and disappeared.

What are you ranting about this time?

After that, I fell in love with space

I would often go to JAXA with my brother to watch the ISS

As long as we looked up, we could probably see it again

but

a short time after

When I started talking about UFO with my classmates

my classmates branded me a liar

my point is

I guess I really enjoyed this exam

It was hard

But it was nice to share this experience

with people who have a similar passion

people who are enthusiastic about astronomy

We

gel well through our love for space

Im sorry

you know

I also grew up being heralded as Frankenstein by my classmates

As a kid, I use to observe the ISS with my dad

I always hoped to come across aliens, too. Good memories

That's a nice story

yeah

in fact, I came here

With the intention of becoming an astronaut

As I wish to conduct medical research on the ISS

Some drugs are easier to produce in space due to weightlessness.

Who knows, the drugs produced may even save many people.

Unfortunately, it was too late for my dad.

I see

I want to go to Mars

Why?

A whole lot of reasons

The challenge, the discoveries, the adventure.

mainly, it's because the place fascinates me

Mars is smaller than Earth

yet when we get their

we would see how mount Olympus is 3 time taller than Everest

In addition, Valles Marineris

would make the Grand Canyon comparable to a crack on the road.

A landscape of red hues

I've got to see it in this life time.

I understand this simple mood

of course, we can't just ignore our desires and give up

Unlike everyone else, Ive attempted becoming an astronaut twice.

It was probably 20 years and 5 years ago

That I also participated in the Astronaut selection test

I've never made it this far before.

but

really

I've always wanted to go to space

A dream Ive harboured since I was a child

I use to work so hard, Id neglect my family

Eventually, my family just got up and left.

Now Im 54yrs old.

Even facing death, I will not renounce my desire.

98

you still have a chance

98

John Glenn was 77yrs old when he went to space

98

Mizoguchi

thank you

We understand, Mutta

You're here because you saw some stupid UFO as a kid

You fluffy hair bastard

Hendrix called. he wants his hair back.

Despite going through his own personal adversity. he can do this?

Perhaps it's the adversity that's the motivating him.

Think what you want

This guy is incredible

Please

keep on moving forward Mutta

Houston, Houston, this is Habito

Houston, Houston!

Sh*t on a stick

News from Houston

they've detected flair lights from within a canyon

Get the maps up and send it to the main display

Are you

here?

The deepest part of the crater?

Not good

Hopefully, the thermoregulation on their suits is ok

being at the bottom of the crater is not good

In about an hours time, it's going to be -60 degrees Celsius

Estimated time to reach the destination; approximately 50minutes

They're at the bottom of the crater and no sun.

we've got to keep going.
