Marcus Kennedy closed the inner airlock door and secured it. He then popped the locks on his EV suit’s helmet, removed it, and took a deep breath. Behind him, seven landers sat charging in their stations.
Marcus pressed a button on the wall radio. “Rick, Squeak and Bumper just arrived. No sign of Grumpy. I waited as long as I could, but I had to lockdown the garage. Sorry.”
“Understood, Marcus. Thanks,” replied Rick. “We’ll monitor him from here.”
Marcus looked out the porthole. He couldn’t see more than a few meters outside the base. The storm was kicking up the soil, and he could hear small pebbles popping against the outer wall.
