Windmere I is a frozen hellscape of howling methane storms and continent-spanning glaciers of water ice—the kind of place that makes you understand why our surveyor drones keep malfunctioning. Stepped out of the lander for precisely four minutes before my teeth stopped chattering enough to think, but those four minutes revealed something worth the frostbite: massive crystal formations jutting from the ice sheet, refracting starlight in patterns I've never seen before, almost deliberate in their geometry. I've stood on a hundred tundra worlds, and they all blur together in memory, but Windmere's silence is different—absolute, suffocating, beautiful in the way a knife is beautiful. Marked for deeper geological survey; something about this place insists on answers.
