“I would put one foot on the dark side, one on the light.” NASA released pictures of the far side of the moon last year, from Apollo 8's orbit — you can see how the other side is so dark and jagged, full of craters and rugged. Lee remembers the first time she'd seen it. It had been December or January. They'd made out and gotten handsy that night, the moon probably had something to do with it, but they'd had nowhere to go.
Strange how only a few months ago they were both panicked and frustrated about that. It seems like forever ago.
