Baby Market
She stood in front of the entrance that seemed to suck her in like a cave. If she went through that revolving door now, she might never reach this point where she was standing again. Eiry took a moment to breathe and looked up at the top of the building. Countless layers of fear and tension loomed outside the window, enveloping Airi’s body.
There are no more ruins left on Earth. This is because all places can be rebuilt exactly as they were in the past. Airi played the video again. The background flashed by and they arrived at a certain point in the past. In the past, when people were interested in neighboring countries and neighbors, there was a belief that the Earth's car that arrived on Mars would not be any different from Earth even when it put its wheels on the ground and started moving. The gravity was different, the atmosphere was different, and sandstorms blew every moment, but Day, who was born on Earth, did not forget his duty on Mars. Day was assembled on Mars, piece by piece. That is why he could run slowly or quickly.
Even though we may have many spouses, we only have one biological parent, so humans live out our one and only life, choosing, worrying, and devoting ourselves completely to it, until our very end. The moment all living things born on Earth accepted the finiteness of life, they came to know that everything was okay. As Airi stood where the Vatican used to be and looked at the relics of the past through Artificial Reality, she noticed that the flow of time around her had slowed down for a moment. Now that everything is digitized and stored, and if we examine what has become possible, we can bring something truly meaningful to the present, and the reason the future is important is probably because when you create something new in an empty space, a path is created, and you feel a sense of responsibility for the lives of those who follow.
After a few days, Airi arrived at the moon. A large station has been built where Neil Armstrong's flag was planted, and many people pass through it to head to new destinations. Airy headed to Mars. On Mars, Klein Bottle found his place, and a huge structure was built to commemorate the small model. Someone numbered the columns of the old London Bridge, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the space where many Greek fighters competed, and moved them to Mars. That place became a church on Mars.
There is a small pool between the moon and Mars. It is called a pool, but it is a large spherical drop of water. We remember water because we were born from water. And water remembers the universe. Airi was able to let herself go into the water and rest for a while. It was because she needed several days to rest before going to the Klein Bottle, which was like a black hole. The Klein Bottle is a mysterious object that floats and moves in the air, without distinction between inside and outside, and without an upper or lower part. As if swimming while feeling the flow of water in a large water droplet, she passed through a point in a clay bottle as if being sucked in, creating a trajectory as she circulated through space. In the area conveniently known as the top floor, she wore safety equipment because she could fall to the surface of Mars due to the influence of gravity. Just like going to work every day, the Klein Bottle repeated her daily routine. For someone who is approaching the end of life, that repetitive day becomes a dream. Living people pass through the door countless times, but they don't necessarily have to follow the same path. Once she mastered the formula for life, the days passed by smoothly. In this way, Airy was able to come out of the clay bottle after some time.
There are several architectural models in the universe, one of which is the polyhedron. God gave humans the form, but humans conceived of buildings suitable for the unfolding universe, and several of them were actually built. The basic polyhedron is the pyramid. If you put four regular triangles together, you get a pyramid, if you put eight squares together, you get a typical cube-shaped building, and if you put a regular pentagon together, you get a dodecahedron, and so on, getting closer and closer to a sphere, suitable for buildings built in the universe. The reason it is symmetrical in any way and there is no difference between left and right and up and down is because the meaning of 'direction' is lost in outer space where only universal gravitational force acts.
Long ago, Galileo argued that the sun does not rise, but rather the earth moves. However, in the past, we estimated the size of the universe in terms of light years, and at that moment, a root that could be the center of the universe was created. Therefore, rather than learning about the size of the universe while exploring it directly, learning about the mysteries of the universe depends on each individual's imagination and experience. The feeling that there was nothing was because there was clearly a long story to be told there. Coming out of the water droplet pool, Airi shook off the salt and washed her feet.
Airi gave birth to Benny, and Free gave birth to Airi, and the flow of the great was stored as if accumulated in the twists of RNA piled up layer by layer. Just as genes put on new clothes, the architecture of Mars also changed clothes every 20 years. Trees were planted and sunlight was trapped in the architecture of life that was like a shackle that repeated forever. Airi could ride an elevator that moved up and down, left and right inside the Klein Bottle and move anywhere by simply pressing a button, but to get to Free’s space or Benny’s space, she had to move to another layer like peeling an onion. That was the basic staircase system of the Klein Bottle.
Klein Bottle, located 20km away from the surface of Mars, was not a very difficult place to reach. The Vatican's Airi will pack a suitcase full of nitrogen and arrive at Mars via a swimming pool. Space construction is a race against time, so it seems vague, but it is not impossible. It was a scene created by someone who was watching people making soap bubbles in the park, or who was holding a watering can to water tulips and spraying them in the sky. Space construction, where this is here and this is here, is not perfect, but it will proceed slowly.
Then, without having to wear a thick spacesuit and move heavily, you can move far away with just light steps, like a duck moving in the water. Airi thought of that as freedom. Airi who arrived at the nitrogen charging station on the moon and was filling the carrier with nitrogen, suddenly thought about returning to Earth. She probably had that thought countless times during her long space journey.
