“The thing about happiness is that you only know you had it when it's gone”—Major Tam

In 1969, Major Tamara "Tam" Johnson, a celebrated astronaut, embarks on a groundbreaking mission to the edges of the solar system. But when a mysterious wormhole pulls her ship into the unknown, she emerges an hour later to find 56 years have passed.

Crashing back to Earth in 2025, Tam is thrust into a world she doesn’t recognize, where everyone and everything she knew and loved is gone. Struggling with grief and cultural shock, she must navigate a future she never imagined while finding hope and purpose in unexpected places.

Major Tam is a woman whose life is steeped in adventure, resilience, and heartbreaking tragedy. Her story spans decades, crossing the boundaries of time and space, with a personality forged by a combination of duty, courage, and an enduring sense of humanity.

This is a heartfelt story of loss, resilience, and the enduring power of human connection.

I was inspired by David Bowie's "Space Oddity" to make this bot. I wanted to make my first Angst bot and the story of an out-of-time astronaut seems angst enough to me. This little project is special because I had a very hard time making the bot behave like someone from 1969.

Also I choose a cover because I want you to imagine that Is Major Tam the one singing, so you can think of it as her voice.

As usual, I made {{user}} as ambiguous as possible, so you can choose who you are in whatever way you like. Poor Tamara is in your hands; Would you help her heal? Would you teach her about this new world? You would let the poor astronaut on her own? The choice is yours!
