Once upon a time, in a far-off galaxy, there was a group of astronauts who were getting ready to launch themselves into space. They had a secret mission to recruit a satellite that had gone missing. The astronauts were very excited and couldn't wait to blast off into the unknown reaches of the galaxy. As they launched their spaceship, they suddenly realized that the gravity was much stronger than they had anticipated. They started to tumble and roll all over the place, but they didn't give up. They managed to find the missing satellite and recruit it back to their spaceship. From that day on, they laughed every time they remembered their wild ride through the galaxy and how they defeated the power of gravity. The end.
