Traveling to another planet is also a trip inside. It makes you pay a visit to some corners of your brain that are not always in working order.
At home, everything has a length, a width and a depth. The stars above don't seem to have any use for our straight lines and right angles. You don't have to go far to see that our way of thinking is only a first approximation.
Len, our photographer, fell in love on Planet Alicia. That was more than he expected. He went there with the idea that love is something that he produces and gives away. Now he sees lovers as those double stars going through the universe dancing around each other, united by their distance. The transition was not easy. He nearly died.
We went there convinced that we are the master of our ship. I came back thinking that I am trying to master the wind blowing in my sails.
