The story so far

Permanent record
  1. Before launch

    Six crew. Five return seats.

    Mission Control says one person must stay to maintain the habitat. The crew accept those terms.

  2. Day zero

    All six arrive on Mars.

    The medical roster and meal plan list the full crew. The oxygen monitor counts five occupants.

  3. First night

    The occupancy report changes overnight.

    The count switches between five and six while one crew member sleeps. At dawn, it reads six.

  4. This morning

    Nadia compares the records.

    She asks the others to count the people at the table. No one can explain why the records disagree.
