I don't know the story line, but the Diorama is great!!

The "script" is mine. I just gave some thought on hypothetical situation. Not even heard of the film Mars, where they leave behind a crew member.
I thought of the courage it takes to go out there exploring new worlds and the hazards coming with the "package".
It happened before during the Discoveries of the XVth century, it happenend with the Poles exploration, it will happen during space exploration.
Bottom line: What were the last thoughts of Katie?

 

[zathros]

Probably, thoughs past words past words, conceptualizations of "I am, I live, I love, I ....I......I see!".

 

[carlos filipe]

That is my guess too. We grew up surrounded by Sci-Fi filled with heroes greater then ordinary man, when in fact, space exploration will be done by ordinary people. Just with special skills.

Very nice idea - and the work done, as well. Although quite sad. The last thoughts of her... Maybe about her mother and father...? Or a prayer...

her last thoughts were a collage of her life's high points, but due to nitrogen poisoning, it just came out as meaningless word blurbs.
