Why was Explore the Cosmos founded?

A reporter asks Yun He this question on the 42nd anniversary of Explore the Cosmos.

Why?

Yun He repeats the question and lowers her head in thought.

Memories rush through her mind, from her childhood surrounded by a group of people to a childhood spent alone, then the exhausting, dark years of youth when she could barely crawl forward, and the rest of her life, which never stopped because of a joke played by the Aeon of Stars, as well as those...

At this thought, Yun He can't help but arch her brows. Happiness bubbles up in her like a glass of SoulGlad gulped down in Penacony, rising in her throat with a cheerful gurgle.

And those people she loves.

Ms. Yun He?

When she still doesn't answer, the reporter has to remind her that the interview is still underway.

"Because of an unwilling bout of overtime."

"Overtime? Are you referring to your early days at the company? As I understand it, you were named Outstanding Employee during that period..."

No... That overtime was much earlier, from a time when she was younger and hated it even more.

Yun He thinks this, but doesn't say it aloud.

Maybe she'll save it for next time and tell the people on the train. They'd all have a good laugh.
