I won't give up!
Luna!
Bell!
Luna!
Stop it!
Will you stop already?
But!
It's no use! It's too dangerous!
Luna!
Luna fell into the sea!
What'd he say?
Set course to sixty degrees astern!
Kaoru!
I know!
The rudder won't work!
That's...
Luna!
Why aren't we following her?
We've lost sight of Luna!
The rudder won't work because of the storm.
I didn't think we'd have this bad a storm!
Where's Luna?
Adam, what about Luna's voice?
I can't hear it. I can't hear it!
Luna...
Is Luna going to die?
Is she?
Luna...
...won't die!
That's right. She definitely won't die!
Luna wouldn't be killed by a storm like this!
Everyone, have faith!
Have faith, and hope for Luna's safety!
Good luck, Luna!
Live.
I can't... Dad...
Live, Luna!
I won't give up.
I won't give up, Dad!
As if I'd let myself give up!
I'm... alive...
I'm... saved.
I wonder if everyone's safe.
Adam, can you hear me?
No use.
Water...
There's no fruit, no river, no anything.
It's no use.
I don't have a moment to waste in sending a signal so they know I'm here.
If I'd known this would happen, I would have had Bell show me how to start a fire.
I'm so hungry that I have no strength.
It stings!
I have to sharpen the tip.
A stone...
...a stone..
A stone that can cut wood...
There isn't one.
No choice.
Nothing I can do.
No choice but to try with this.
Maybe...
Water...
No use.
Why you...
I did it! I did it!
Ouch!
No use.
That's right!
They used this method in old movies...
It caught!
It's fire...
It's fire!
I wonder how everyone is right now.
Hopefully they've noticed this fire.
Luna...
Who is it?
Luna...
Dad?
Luna.
Come to think of it, a long time ago...
...I watched a bonfire with Dad like this once.
This is my first bonfire!
Actually, it's mine too.
Really?
Is it okay?
Havin' an open fire in the colony.
This is an vegetation experiment plant cut off from the residence area.
It's special.
I wanted to try it once.
Because our ancestors sat around fires like this for thousands of years.
Just by watching it like this, I feel like my heart gets warmer.
It's just 'cuz the fire's hot.
No, I feel relieved!
I feel that way too.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, thanks to this thick, dense forest, humanity can survive here.
I dunno if human bodies are mysterious or just infathomable.
Hey Daddy, you and your friends made this whole forest?
Yeah, that's right.
We tilled the soil, planted the seedlings, gave them water and fertilizer, and made them this big.
Because plants make the oxygen humans need.
This is what they call, "Terraforming."
Terraforming?
To put it simply, it's making a planet's environment inhabitable for us humans.
This place is in the midst of terraforming, which will take many years.
And when it's finished, people will be able to live anywhere like on Earth, instead of just in colonies.
So that's Daddy's job! That's amazing!
Daddy, is something wrong?
I take pride in my work, but...
Sometimes... I have a thought.
Considering the number of planets in the universe, maybe changing planets other than Earth so that humans can live on them is arrogant.
Maybe, but Earth doesn't have an environment where humans can live anymore.
If you don't do this, humanity'd go extinct.
That's right. Even though I assure myself of that, sometimes that thought comes into my head.
I don't really understand.
Maybe it's a bit early to talk to you about that, Luna.
Got that right. She still wets the bed so much you could draw a map of space with it.
I do not wet the bed!
Then who helps you clean up after?
You promised you'd never tell!
And you didn't gimme the juice you promised!
What?
Wha'?
Okay, stop fighting now.
I'd be happy if you could get along.
We won't get along!
Luna, do you know?
How many stars there are in the galaxy.
Maybe about a hundred?
They say there's over two hundred billion just in this galaxy.
Two hundred billion?
One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten-thousand...
...hundred-thousand, million, ten-million, hundred-million...
That many?
And there are scholars who say there's at least ten million planets in the galaxy just like old earth with water and life.
Ten million... that's so many!
Out of so many stars, only that many have life.
How romantic!
Space is super, super huge!
So compared to the size of space, this planet where we live is the size of a grain of sand.
Grain of sand?
But many people live here.
So what we're doing, relative to the vastness of space, is just an incomparably small thing...
...but on these worlds where there is no life...
...I work frantically because I want to cultivate the tree of life, even if it's just a little at a time.
That's how your dad feels, Luna.
Tree of life?
What a wonderful phrase!
Hey, hey. Don't say it carelessly.
Chako, shut up!
Yeah, yeah.
When I'm grown up, I want to be a planetary settlement engineer just like you, Daddy!
Really?
Then you'd better study really hard.
I'll do my best!
Dad...
...I've done my best since then.
I've studied all I can so I can be a planetary settlement engineer.
I want...
...my Mom...
...and Dad...
...to praise my hard work...
The cut is gone!
The blisters are gone too.
Water...
No use after all.
Morning dew!
If I don't hurry, it'll evaporate!
I have to eat something.
Water...
I want to drink like crazy.
I have to conserve my strength as much as I can.
I have to wake up earlier tomorrow...
...and drink...
...more...dew...
Fall! Fall! Fall faster!
Come to think of it, Dad said that too.
Nature is very harsh, very kind...
...and very beautiful.
Luna!
Everyone!
Hey!
Everyone! Hey!
The reason Luna's wounds healed so quickly is because a certain substance is in her body.
'Cuz of that, Luna's anxious and in low spirits.
What should we do?
How about we have a party to try make Luna a little happier?
Hit the nail on the head as usual.
Good idea, Sharla!
Okay, let's get started!
Next time: Why is something like that...
