Artemis II's moonbound astronauts capture Earth's beauty

The Artemis II astronauts have captured Earth's brilliant blue beauty as they zoom ever closer to the moon. NASA released the crew's first downlinked images Friday, 1 1/2 days into the first astronaut moonshot in more than half a century. The first photo taken by commander Reid Wiseman shows a curved slice of Earth in one of the capsule's windows. The second shows the entire globe with the oceans topped by swirling white tendrils of clouds. It even includes a pale green aurora. As of midday Friday, the crew was 100,000 miles from Earth and quickly gaining on the moon.

There are persons that feel responsibility for their family but also for their fellow people they share their life with. For William it is the normal thing to do and he is not bad in it. Putting him into an office would push him to the limit. He needs to be there, protect others so parents don't have to mourn the loss of her family, children can grow up in safety. Not only in the core worlds but everywhere where intelligent life has family ties. Someon else could get it all wrong.

His oldest daughter is very similar to him and even applied for the APE (Alliance pre-training enlistment the newest version of Alliance training program for future soldiers and leaders).
