Sent it off. The first batch of Mars tomato images is on its way back, all neat and with just a touch more dignity than expected. Standing in the Comm Station, listening to Victor spin the delay like it was planned, I got this weird feeling—like maybe this is the moment we'll all look back on. Also, yeah, I stared at a tomato and thought of Boulder. Sentiment’s allowed here. We grew something on Mars.
