I was struggling. I had not felt gravity in six months. My body hardly knew what to do. Nothing worked as well as it should have, with my body I mean, and I was actually kind of worried about getting out of the Rover.

But what I remember most of all was how alive I felt. I don't know if anybody has ever felt that alive, I know I sure haven't. I remember that the most.
