Writing competition 132 / Lost in space part 2 /"Star bound: An Adventure of Survival."

Commander Sarah Miller discovered herself floating among the emptiness of the universe. Throughout a typical flight, such as her rockets for space travel the S.S. Orion, had a catastrophic breakdown. She clung to the flickering beacon of her experience as she floated solo in the empty space with limited oxygen and shrinking chance of rescue.

Sarah toiled to fix the ship's vital systems as the days grew lonesome and long. Time sped up, stars started to accompany her, and Universe started to observe her silently. In the hopes that someone, somewhere could hear her, she left letters on tape, her utterance booming into the silence.

Weeks turned into months, and when her supplies ran low, Sarah was presented with an ominous situation. But despite being alone, she made a strong connection with the universe. She was awestruck by the magnificence of far-off galaxies, the twirling of cosmic dust, and the solitary nature of celestial entities.

Sarah never gave up on herself in the end. Being lost in space caused her to merge into the cosmos, becoming a star that shone with an unwavering spirit. She would long be a symbol of mankind's enduring individual drive to investigate, persevere, and eventually discover significance in the unfathomable wonder of the cosmos, even if her voyage remained unrecorded and her death was unknown.
