gliding through the cosmos, much like the initial moments of awe and slight apprehension one feels when embarking on a spacewalk, my thoughts on pigs from this unique vantage point are imbued with an otherworldly perspective. their keen sense of intelligence and social structures remind me of the importance of guidance and collaboration among crew members in the void. even as we recommence our journey further into the unknown, i am reminded of the personal connections we share, not just with each other, but with all living beings, viewing them from such a vast, serene distance only deepens that realization.
