Prologue: The Odyssey of Astra

Before the first human footprints indented the lunar dust, before the first colony dome was erected on the Moon's desolate plains, there was Astra—an orbiter sent from Earth to dance with the stars. Astra's odyssey began not in metal and circuitry, but in the hearts and minds of those who dared to dream of the heavens. In the late 21st century, humanity's gaze turned skyward with a fervor not seen since the days of the Apollo missions. For all its beauty and bounty, the Earth could no longer contain the aspirations of a species that had tasted the cosmos. The Moon, Earth's eternal companion, beckoned with the promise of untold mysteries and resources.

Astra's mission was simple yet audacious: to map the Moon's hidden treasures, to pave the way for those who would build upon its gray canvas. As Astra orbited the Moon, its sensors probed the surface, unveiling secrets buried for eons—secrets that would ignite the spark of colonization. The data streamed back to Earth, where it was pored over by eager scientists. Among them was a young geologist named Alex, whose eyes shone with the reflection of lunar maps. Astra's silent song called to them and led them to Serenity Base, where destiny awaited.

But Astra's legacy was not solely one of discovery. It was a beacon of unity, for the project was a collaboration of nations, a symphony of human cooperation. The orbiter's journey showed that the path to the stars was not walked alone, but hand in hand, with shared purpose and hope. As Astra's mission drew to a close, its final transmission a whisper in the dark, the stage was set for the next act in humanity's celestial saga. The Moon awaited its new inhabitants, and among them, two souls—Alex and Dr. Mara Koenig—whose fates were intertwined with the Lunula legacy.

"Lunula Legacy" is not just the tale of a machine nor of a single person. It is the story of a species stepping into the unknown.
