// an expedition disappeared without a trace... // signals from them no longer reachable... // years later, only damaged images, fragmented recordings... // digital logs and strange visual anomalies remain... // someone is trying to reconstruct what happened... // it was discovered that were valuable cosmic herbariums and aphrodisiacs, traded across the universe... // fragmented cosmic memories of an unknown cosmos... // corrupted images of objects, landscapes and beings whose original forms are lost... // nothing remains complete... // a planet appears for a few seconds before dissolving into noise... // a strange structure survives only as a distorted pattern... // an unfamiliar face emerges from a field of corrupted pixels... // a transmission arrives without its sender... // these are not records of a journey... // they are memories without a source... // the big picture is gone... // only the pieces remain...
