Success

A few hours earlier

Raj: "Everyone, today is one of the greatest days that will be recorded in human history."

"Today will be the day that the Pioneer 001 will take off."

"Pioneer 001 is the spaceship designed and made by the space research institute of Earth Empire."

"It is capable of flying at a speed of 1000 km/s."

"It is approximately 1/3rd of 1% of the speed of light."

"Today will be the day when this spaceship takes off with humans onboard for the first time."

"Are you ready!!"

Everyone: "Yeah!!"

Everyone seems to be filled with emotion.

Although these people don't usually make loud noises, today is an exception.

Today is a special day.

The last time a human landed on a celestial body was the moon.

Now, the target of the landing has changed from the Earth's personal satellite to a whole new planet, Mars.

"Everyone, get to your positions."

"The operation will begin in 30 minutes."

"No mistakes are allowed."

"Every step needs to be perfect."

"Got it"

Everyone: "Yes"

Soon everyone began to work.

In 15 minutes, all the preparations were completed.

Soon the astronauts boarded the spaceship, and the spacecraft took off.

...…

Present Time

Astronaut 1: "Oi! You guys, is that Mars."

Astronaut 2: "It must be"

Astronaut 3: "What are you doing discussing here."

"If you have a doubt, just go and check the indicators."

The three rush to check, and sure enough, he was correct.

Astronaut 1: "Hey, we are the first from earth to set foot on Mars."

Astronaut 2: "Yes, however, we were also lucky."

"The team that set off for the Moon was also equal to us in ability at that time."

Astronaut 3: "Yeah, he is right."

"If it were not for the luck of that guy to be bad, we would not be the ones to come to Mars."

Astronaut 1: "Whatever, you guys just don't want to admit that I am better than you and them."

Astronaut 2: "Yeah, you are right."

"How can we admit something so shameful."

"What if someone finds out the truth someday?"

"In that case, wouldn't our reputation be killed because of you?"

Astronaut 1: [This guy really said all that bullshit with a straight face]

[Doesn't he feel ashamed of his shamelessness]

[Oh! Wait, how can he be ashamed if he feels ashamed]

[Ah!! I knew that this guy was not good]

Meanwhile, when Astronaut 1 was cursing Astronaut 2 in his mind.

Both Astronaut 2 & Astronaut 3 looked at Astronaut 1, changing expressions every second.

Astronaut 3: "Everyone gets ready."

"We are about to land."

Immediately upon hearing him shout, the two immediately got ready for landing.

They were all aware that jokes are allowed at ordinary times; however, you must immediately get serious whenever the time comes.

Astronaut 3: "The procedure will begin in 5… 4… 3… 2… 1… 0."

Everyone immediately concentrated, and soon the Spacecraft began to prepare for its landing.

The spaceship changed its position to take a suitable posture for landing.

Soon the Spacecraft began to lower, and the thrust reduced.

In almost no time, the spacecraft landed amidst the cheers of everyone.

The astronauts, the space agency members, the scientists, the civilians, and everyone was celebrating another big success for humanity.

In less than 15 minutes of the success, the news spread to the entire Earth.

Many space enthusiasts had taken a break from their work today to take a look at the success or failure of the Pioneer 001.

Hearing the news of the Pioneer 001's success was a major milestone for the people.

Soon press conferences took place, and many talks were done.

One of the news revealed in a Press Conference on the 5th-hour of their landing stated that Pioneer 001 is expected to spend at least 19 Days on Mars, and this stay can extend up to 34 days depending upon the situation.

This news came as a shock to many people.

They could not believe that the Pioneers had enough food and other necessities for them to spend 19/34 days on Mars.

However, these people did not know that the Astronaut 1 on the Pioneer 001 was a member of World Brand.

He is also the one responsible for taking care of the food and its distribution.

Although it was suspicious, the other two astronauts did not believe that the small storage box could hold food enough to spend so long on the moon.

However, they had no option but to believe him when he really allowed them to survive for 40 days just based on the food stored in that storage box.
