On November 20, 1998, a Russian rocket launched the first module of the International Space Station, marking the beginning of a collaborative space mission where the crew, including the first American and Russian to enter the station, celebrated their joint entry and documented the historic event in a logbook. The logbook entry highlights the collaborative spirit and shared dreams of the crew, leading to the development of the International Space Station through a partnership between Russia, the United States, and other international entities, combining Russian experience with American funding for peaceful economic and scientific advancements in space. Anthony, dressed as an apostle, stepped into the bustling heart of Matera’s Old Town, where ancient stone streets doubled as a film set for a movie about Jesus and the epicenter of a real-life protest. The rally, a vivid tableau of crushed tomatoes and impassioned voices, demanded fair working conditions and residency permits for African refugees. Local farmers, migrants, and tourists united in a powerful demonstration against exploitation, highlighting the plight of seasonal laborers in southern Italy, many of whom lived in camps and faced mafia extortion.
After spending a year on the ISS, the once unfamiliar and complex technology in the training module now feels familiar and almost like home, with the Coupola offering an unparalleled, breathtaking view of Earth that is hard to leave. The narrator describes the dynamic activities on a space station, including moving solar panels, docking and undocking of space ships, and using a robotic arm, while expressing a desire to document and share these events with people on Earth, but ends with a playful mention of a somersault. Among the crowd, Anthony spotted Arve and Umbaya, refugees from Senegal who had found solace and support at Casa Sancara, a sanctuary offering better living conditions and opportunities compared to the ghetto. Casa Sancara, a beacon of hope, provided employment and legal aid, with volunteers assisting in daily tasks and notable activists like Ivonne Sanje leading rallies. Milo Raos, the film’s director, aimed to inspire political change by focusing on Jesus’ radical message of advocating for the oppressed.
The first all-woman spacewalk was successfully completed by NASA astronauts Christina Koch and Jessica Meyer, marking a significant milestone as they replaced an exterior part of the ISS, despite initial challenges with suit sizes designed primarily for men. The paragraph discusses the development of more inclusive space suits, the potential for optimizing concrete to combat climate change, the historic significance of the ISS, the challenges faced by the crew after an aborted launch, and the efforts to maintain morale, including celebrating Halloween with creative costumes. During a break from filming, Anthony explored Matera, discussing cultural differences between Africa and Europe with Alexander, a Ghanaian actor who had lived in Italy for 12 years. Alexander believed that living abroad offered his children a different perception of society and better educational opportunities, aligning with his broader mission of personal and familial growth.
While flying over Europe on February 24th, the crew noticed a striking blackout in Ukraine, except for Kiev, due to the conflict with Russia, leading to tense discussions among the international team on the space station and highlighting the impact of the war, including sanctions affecting Russian cosmonauts. The International Space Station (ISS) has been crucial for international cooperation and scientific experimentation, but due to high maintenance costs and the shift towards smaller, commercially-operated space stations, the focus is now on transitioning from the ISS to these new ventures while preparing for deeper space exploration. As Anthony reflected on his past, including his harrowing journey from Nigeria to Libya and the eight months he spent imprisoned there, he couldn’t help but feel a mix of uncertainty and hope. The chaotic day marked by violence and escape, where security forces opened fire, resulting in many deaths, was a stark contrast to the film crew’s preparation for scenes about the crucifixion of Jesus.
The ISS, with a mass of around 420 tons and a typical lifespan of 30 years, will eventually need to be de-orbited in its entirety through a complex, precisely planned operation involving multiple space agencies, likely resulting in its controlled reentry and burn-up over the South Pacific. The ISS holds a special place in our hearts as a symbol of cooperation and inspiration, reminding us of the unique privilege and unity required to tackle humanity’s greatest challenges. Anthony’s two weeks on set had been intense but enriching, exposing him to diverse cultures and perspectives. With the filming nearly complete and the resurrection scene pending in Rome, Anthony pondered his future, uncertain but determined to find his path beyond the ghetto. How does the intersection of Anthony’s personal journey, the film’s portrayal of Jesus’ advocacy for the oppressed, and the real-life protest against the exploitation of African refugees in Matera highlight the broader issues of migration, labor rights, and cultural integration in contemporary Europe?
