“... so I am saying to you Chie, my first and only child, that you might regard in wonder these men walking on the moon but you must never forget the price humanity pays for its moments of glory, because humanity doesn't know when to stop, it doesn't know when to call it a day, so be wary is what I mean though I say nothing, be wary.”

This is my reminder that I may love astronauts but there should also be a plot for me to enjoy the story. Despite that, I still ended up liking this quite a bit. The narration of the astronauts and cosmonauts is mesmerizing, almost hypnotic but also deeply thought provoking.
