Sol Two Hundred and Seventy, A Single Person's Sunset

"The Eagle?" Tomcat removed the earpiece, unsure what Tang Yue was getting at.

"The Eagle's Ascent Vehicle. The little guy we launched up there. Isn't it still connected to the United Space Station?"

Tomcat waved its claw. It obviously knew that the Eagle's Ascent Vehicle was still connected to the United Space Station. Back then, both of them had gone to great effort and danger before successfully sending the Eagle into the embrace of the space station. Looking back, Tomcat felt that it must have been mad to agree to such a risky operation.

However, the Eagle's Ascent Vehicle couldn't be used as a vessel to enter the atmosphere again. It was one-use, having completed its mission after it entered orbit.

Now, the Eagle was just a large piece of space trash. Logically speaking, it was to be abandoned, but the reason Mai Dong hadn't abandoned it was because with Earth gone, man-made space trash became rare and precious.
