Audio transcript: Hi Romy! Hope you're well, sweetie. Have you been finishing all your schoolwork? Your last message said you were struggling with some of the maths. I hope you've sorted it out by now. I used to find maths really hard when I was at school too! It'll all come together in the end.
I'm sending you some more worksheets, in case you've completed the ones you've already got. By the time you read this, I think you'll be working on three-dimensional propulsion mechanics, so that's what the attached exercises focus on.
Let us know if there's anything you want us to send. I've also attached a new episode of the podcast you like – it's funny. Enjoy!
Talk to you tomorrow.
Molly is my therapist and miscellaneous pillar of support. She was assigned to me by NASA after my parents died, to help me deal with their deaths – and my unexpected promotion to commander of The Infinity.
I receive messages from her every day, without fail, to make sure I don't get too lonely. Her first message was two hours long. I think I listened to it over a hundred times – maybe more. It was my constant soundtrack for months.
