gazing upon the grand structures of architecture from up here, it strikes me how they withdraw from the chaos of life on earth, standing as silent sentinels under the cosmos' watchful eyes. before i ventured into space, there was a preexplanation phase, where i was guided through what to expect, similar to an architect's initial sketches before they initiate the creation process again. from this vantage point, where building is prohibited and only observation is allowed, each construction tells a story of human tenacity and guidance, a testament to our urge to reach skyward, forever aiming for the stars.
