Thus, Jen finally decided to embark on the exploration of the moon, using a split doll (Doppel) that eliminated biological problems.

At 8 a.m. on June 2, Jen's flagship, Adriana, was ready to leave at Penglai's Zero Port.

"All right, old man, whenever you want."

"Yes, your husband (My Road). Then I will do the countdown"

I'm just in the mood.

"Ten... nine... eight... seven..."

Jen and Elsa themselves are lying on their seats in the command room in the laboratory wearing a pilot device.

"... four... three... two... one..."

And the count goes to zero.

"Go!"

'Adriana', a huge spherical spaceship of 300 meters in diameter, floated up.

Keep it up, slowly raise it to avoid causing strong winds.

It accelerates slightly from around 1,000 meters up.

"I'd like to build a relay base in satellite orbit and launch it from there."

Jen lying in the command room had that in mind.

'... wow'

Jen and Elsa's split doll (Doppel) was in the lookout room at the upper pole of 'Adriana'.

They are equipped with shade junctions, etc. I don't have to worry about cosmic rays or anything because I'm a doppel-dog.

Elsa was touched when she went into space with a 'Doppel' comparable to her body.

Stars shining on their backs with pitch-black backgrounds, burning suns, and blue glowing water stars...... Ars.

Jen (Doppel of = Jen D) stared silently at Elsa (Doppel of = Elsa D) staring out silently with a warm look.

"Brother Jin, thank you"

After a lot of silence, Elsa thanked him as he grumbled.

"Very, very happy to see this view."

so grumbled Elsa D's shoulder, Jen D gently held the

'Cause I'm gonna make you happier.'

whispered.

'... thanks'

Elsa D gave herself softly to such Jen D.

"Dear Master (My Road), I will leave the surrounding orbit shortly and aim for the moon"

The voice of the 'Grand Sage' sounded like breaking the silence.

Jen D and Elsa D bring consciousness back to reality.

Let's get back to the central bridge.

"N"

When Jen D and Elsa D returned to the central bridge, the screen showed a distant Ars.

"Cruise speed, we're flying at 200 km/h."

"You're doing well."

Flying in 'Adriana' is comfortable as long as it is captured by the feel of 'Doppel'.

The onboard gravity is kept at 1G and the residential compartment is filled with breathable air.

The doppelganger didn't need to eat, but it was loaded with enough food and water.

'Yeah, that's going well. Grand Sage, please.

"Yes, I'll take care of it"

"Rest a little while, mister."

Ann, who is coming as a crew to support Jen D and Elsa D., spoke to the two of them.

"Oh, let's do that"

With no basics until the arrival of the moon, Jen and Elsa removed the steering device and rose out of the seat.

"Hmm."

Again, flying through space made me a little nervous, even if that was a split doll (doppel).

……

Next door Elsa is also up, staring at Jen and blushing.

Even now, he seems to be aware of what was said in the observation room.

"Father, Elsa. Tea, please."

Reiko brought me brown rice tea.

Reiko remains on earth to protect her biological Jen.

Ann, Lol, and Refa are on board 'Adriana' instead.

"Oh, thank you"

The distance between Ars and the moon is approximately 380,000 km. If you could fly at 200 kilometers per second, you'd be there in about 32 minutes.

Meanwhile, Jen and Elsa decided to have some tea and relax.

Especially since Elsa's tension was so visible, he decided that it was better to leave the Doppel control once.

And 25 minutes passed.

The Magic Screen (Magic Screen) in the Command Room shows footage of the moon sent from Adriana, which was getting bigger from time to time.

"Time to get back to Doppel control."

"Mmm."

"Reiko, thank you for the tea"

Jen and Elsa deposited their backs on the seat again, wearing a steering device.

"Master (My Road), in three minutes, it's the moon orbit. Everything's fine."

"The Great Sage" reported to Jen D, who returned to the central bridge of "Adriana".

"Okay."

The flight around the moon has gone once, so I had no problems at all so far.

'I'll take a few circles first. Try to drop altitude one by one. "

Copy that, sir.

'Adriana' circling the moon.

"The surface is wilderness, something like that."

"Yes, your husband (My Road). There doesn't seem to be any air."

As we drop altitude, the details come to light.

Its surface is rock, debris and sand, with no trace of life.

There doesn't seem to be any air either, but by the way I see a white part that looks like dry ice, so it's possible that there was atmosphere back in the old days.

"Current altitude, approximately 10,000 km from the lunar surface"

At the same time as the perimeter, several values shall also be measured.

"The diameter is roughly 1,700 kilometers"

It is no different from the measurements made last time I visited.

'After all, it seems for sure that you are pointing the same face at Ars'

This is also the great mystery of the moon.

"Current altitude, approximately 5,000 km"

Ultimately, I plan to drop up to 1,000 kilometers, but I'm not willing to land.

"All right, get ready for reconnaissance."

For times like this, there are ten 10-metre starships of the same type as Icarus 2.

Astros, a small 40-cm-class space golem, are in charge of manoeuvring.

Three ships, 'Achilles', 'Perseus' and 'Hercules', were ejected from the hangar of 'Adriana'.
