Exclusive Proposal
AROUND THE MOON

 

Starting from 2029, you will embark on a journey to the Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida, where an adventure unlike any other awaits. As you set off on your mission to the Moon, you will travel over 500,000 kilometers through space, retracing the historic path of the Apollo 8 mission of 1968. What’s more, this journey will feature the most spectacular marriage proposal in the last 13.8 billion years—where love and science combine to create an unforgettable experience!

 

Before takeoff, you will undergo a series of medical exams and physical assessments to ensure your readiness for this epic adventure. Over the course of three months, aerospace professionals will train you through cardio workouts, high-G centrifuge sessions, microgravity acclimation via parabolic flights aboard a Boeing 727, exposure to high accelerations and rapid speed changes on a fighter jet flying beyond Mach 2, a thorough briefing on the spaceship and flight itinerary, stress management techniques, and emergency procedure simulations.

 

On launch day, you will arrive at Cape Canaveral and proceed to the launch pad, dressed in a space suit designed to protect you in case of cabin depressurization. As you strap yourself into the seat, your heart will race in anticipation of the countdown.

 

Then, the moment comes: Five... four... three... two... one... Ignition! The rocket roars to life, and you experience the most intense sensations of your life! Accelerating at 3G, the first few minutes will be demanding, but soon the first stage of the rocket will separate, propelling you dozens of kilometers into space with breathtaking speed.

 

As the shaking fades and vibrations soften, Richard Strauss’s famous tone poem Thus Spoke Zarathustra will play through your headset, marking your first experience of weightlessness—a moment that is exhilarating, deeply moving, and utterly surreal.

 

When Earth comes into view, you will be mesmerized by its breathtaking beauty—the harmony of deep cerulean hues and perfect balance that only those who have traveled beyond our atmosphere can truly appreciate. Yet before long, your spacecraft will be hurtling through space at over 38,000 kilometers per hour!

 

Hour after hour, time will lose all meaning as the Moon steadily grows larger. Its gray disk will slowly transform into a majestic sphere, with the details of craters becoming clearer and more defined.

 

After nearly three days, you will orbit the lunar surface, flying just 200 to 300 kilometers above it. As the spacecraft slows, the Moon’s hidden far side will come into view, and for approximately thirty minutes, all communication with Earth will be cut off. This is the perfect moment to make a proposal unlike any other! As Frank Sinatra’s Fly Me to the Moon plays softly in your headset, you will reveal the engagement ring you’ve secretly tucked inside your suit, while the cratered surface glides beneath your feet. The moment will sweep you away in emotion and wonder!

 

Once the Moon fades behind you, you will witness Earth rising on the horizon—a magnificent, shimmering blue globe emerging beyond the gray, rocky peaks of the lunar craters—and contact with Cape Canaveral will be restored. The spacecraft will then begin its return journey to Earth, offering you time to relax and savor the final sensations of weightlessness and cosmic tranquility.

 

As you descend to around 100 kilometers altitude, the atmosphere will grow denser, and your heat shield will ignite in a brilliant plasma glow visible through the portholes. Brace yourself as deceleration climbs to nearly 5G! Yet, after a few intense minutes, parachutes will deploy and retro-rockets will slow your capsule, ensuring a smooth and elegant landing. Media from around the world will be there to witness your spectacular return—having conquered the vast unknown and the heart of your beloved!
