Chief Engineer

Space is big, and it's cool, and there's stuff out there, but unfortunately it's all very far away.

That's why we need rockets.

With a good rocket, we can travel very far. We can go into space and see all the stuff.

Some of that stuff might be weird, though. Or it might be hard to get to. Or it might give us a roadmap to where even more stuff is.

The rocket that we build at the start of our journey is probably not going to be perfect for dealing with the things that we run into once we're in space, and so we're going to need to change it as we go.

If we find a water world? We'll make the rocket a submersible.

If we have to go close to a sun? We'll make the rocket heatproof.

And if a big space-whale spots us and thinks we're a little piece of plankton? We'll give the rocket a LOT more boosters.

Space is big, but if we're creative enough, nothing can stop us from seeing it all.
