Inside the ship, Captain Stuart Jackson maintained his professional composure as he began giving precise instructions for Apollo 38 to enter automatic mode.
-Karen, activate the flight stabilization system so that we maintain a stable trajectory while we ascend to lunar orbit - ordered Jackson from his cockpit.
Karen nodded, her hands moving fluidly over the control panel in front of her. He typed a few commands into the flight console, checking the altitude, speed and alignment parameters. Once set, he activated the flight stabilization system, ensuring the craft continued on course without a hitch.
-Stabilization system activated, Captain - Karen announced, watching the graphics on the screen confirm that everything was in order.
Meanwhile, Lara was in charge of the life support systems, checking oxygen pressure, the ship's temperature and the status of the air recycling systems.
-Stable oxygen pressure at 98%, constant ambient temperature at 21 degrees Celsius. Life support systems in perfect condition - Lara reported, making a final check on the screens that showed data on atmospheric levels inside the ship.
David, meanwhile, was tasked with monitoring the status of the thrusters and structural integrity.He connected his console to the engine systems, checking power levels and making sure there were no fluctuations in the gauges.
-Main engines operating at 87% capacity. Structural integrity at 100%, no anomalies in the systems - reported David.Meanwhile, Marco and Sara worked in the communications and navigation area. Marco adjusted the transmitting antennas to maintain constant contact with NASA's control center on Earth, while Sara checked the coordinates and star maps to ensure the spacecraft remained on the correct path to the Moon.
-Online transmission antennas, maintaining communication at 0.03 seconds delay Marco said, with the signal graphs showing a stable connection.-Heading confirmed towards lunar orbit, without deviations in trajectory - Sara added, satisfied.
Once everyone had completed their tasks, Captain Stuart Jackson gestured for them to follow.-Okay, guys, we've secured the systems and the ship is in automatic mode.
Let me give you a little tour of the facilities, Stuart said as he stood up from his seat.
He led the group through the ship's hallways, which, though narrow, were designed to be functional and comfortable. The first stop was the dining area, a space with several folding tables, food dispensers and a small built-in kitchen.
-This is where you can eat and relax a bit during the journey. The food is dehydrated, but it's not as bad as it looks - the captain commented with a smile.
They then continued on to the individual sleeping compartments. Stuart showed them their cabins, small spaces equipped with floating beds and personal storage systems.
-These are their quarters. It's not much, but they'll have enough privacy to rest when they need to.
The ship is scheduled to reach the Moon in about 72 hours, so they'll have time to adjust to the surroundings - explained Stuart.
Karen, Lara, Marco, Olivia, David and Sara watched intently as the captain detailed each section of the ship. The atmosphere inside Apollo 38 was calm, but full of expectations. Now, with the ship on auto-course and everything under control, there was little left for them to do but wait and prepare for the moment when they would set foot on the lunar surface.
