A novel that follows twenty-four hours aboard the International Space Station through the eyes of six astronauts. By layering routine, isolation, and the textures of life in microgravity, it reflects on Earth’s beauty, human fragility, and the responsibility people owe to their planet.

Only by leaving Earth do the astronauts see how deeply they belong to it.
