After everyone boarded the Pioneer, they prepared to set off and return to the Water Ball. After a year of being away, they could finally go home.
This lifted the spirits of all the crew members and marked the beginning of their return journey.
Departure, heading for Water Ball!
Let's go home!
Under Jiang Cheng's command, Pioneer slowly took off from Mars.
It gradually picked up speed, heading towards Water Ball.
The astronauts who participated in the construction of Hope City, except for a few who stayed behind for long-term stationing, were all now on the Pioneer, waiting for the moment to return home.
They have become very homesick after more than a year on this mission.
Conditions on Mars aren't bad, but it doesn't feel as good as home.
At this moment, everyone was eagerly anticipating the moment they could see their families.
