There is a moment where we see a group of children running and riding a Ferris wheel in the corridors of this colony. And I wondered what it would be like for these kids to grow up in a colony that still needs 50 years to terraform. If I ever tell a story in this world, I will definitely be interested in these children when they reach their twenties.
