Synopsis[]
Claire has been reassigned to monitor the flight crew and assist Cheng-Shin because of a string of mistakes. The head designer of the Jupiter Exploration Mission, Werner Locksmith goes to visit the Debris Section to speak with Hachimaki. He is in search of Goro Hoshino, Hachimaki's father, who is revealed to be a veteran of several missions to Mars. Locksmith hopes to recruit Goro as Chief Engineer for the Von Braun because of his experience with fusion engines. After he leaves, Goro comes out of hiding, telling Hachimaki that all he wants is to settle down back on Earth. Later, all flight departures to the Moon are canceled because the research laboratory containing the Tandem Mirror Engine has exploded. Locksmith's practical attitude toward the accident convinces Goro to sign onto the Von Braun [1].
