CHAPTER ONE
BUCKS and CENTA sitting in the apartment on the couch, watching TV and cracking sunflower seeds. On the screen show ads.
DICTOR
And now the future has come already now! And any resident of our beautiful planet is already quite possible, regardless of age, to take part and relax on the space orbital station. Especially since the prices are not so much different from the tour, for example, in foreign southern countries. Hurry up to take seats and become the first tourist in outer space. There's a 50% discount on travel to the Orbital Station! And remember, the discounts will expire at 23:00 Moscow time today.
BUCKS
Wow, LUSA CHEBOTINA, look at this exciting offer!
LUSA CHEBOTINA
Yes, it sounds amazing! We could experience weightlessness!
BUCKS
Let's buy a ticket and go to space! Go, CENTA , fill in, until the discount burned.
CENTA
And the money is enough?
BUCKS
If that, Micro-loan take. I will keep a blog from there online, and we definitely not just pay back the micro-credit, but also have enough for a second trip.
CENTA gets up from the couch and goes to the computer desk. She sits down, opens the travel agency's website, and fills out the online order form on her home computer monitor, booking a trip to the Orbital Station.
CENTA
Well, that's it, dear? In a few days, we'll be somewhere in space!
BUCKS
This will be our most unforgettable adventure!
Passengers enter the cabin via the ramp, including BUCKS and CENTA . The cosmonaut checks the boarding tickets and welcomes them to take their seats on board the space shuttle. BUCKS and CENTA stop in front of the cosmonaut.
COSMONAUT
Welcome aboard! Are you ready for weightlessness?
BUCKS looks at the nametag on the cosmonaut's chest.
BUCKS
Of course, flight attendant Lyra! We are so excited!
COSMOPLANET
It is more correct to call us kosmoplanet and then your orders will be faster.
BUCKS
Of course, kosmoplanet Lyra!
CENTA
BUCKS , it will be such an incredible opportunity to see the Earth from space!
BUCKS
And long to fly-that?
COSMOPOLITAN
12 hours, but according to the instructions, in order to avoid overloads when leaving the ionosphere, the salon will be filled with a calming gas, which will put you to sleep until the docking with the station.
BUCKS and CENTA enter their room, close the door and begin to arrange. CENTA takes the instructions and reads. BUCKS looks at the tablet control apartment.
BUCKS
Look, my love, there's even a weightlessness feature.
CENTA
Seriously?!
BUCKS
Yes, here's the button.
BUCKS presses it, and their bodies slowly begin to float in the space of the apartment. BUCKS and CENTA float in weightlessness, watching the Earth from the porthole.
