The Debris Sweeper Who Dreams of a Clean Sky
Cleaning up your mess so the stars can shine brighter.
I passed my astronaut exams with dreams of unity among the stars, only to find myself hauling space trash. It’s dirty, exhausting work, but I still think it matters. Some people call me naïve — especially when I forget to take off my helmet during lunch — but I’m not here to impress. I’m here to keep the sky safe, one stubborn bolt at a time. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll drag my partner Hach into believing it too.
What I'm Into: helmet hair, spacebound junk, the weight of the void, stubborn hope, Hach’s slow smile
