Despite the microgravity environment in Low Earth Orbit, a magnet remains drawn to Earth’s strong magnetic field. A cylindrical magnet that orients itself toward Earth’s magnetic North and South—even in the absence of gravity and regardless of its location—becomes a metaphor for our longing and sense of belonging. And if one end is always pointing toward Earth, the other inevitably points away, reminding us that every connection also carries a counterpart: distance, departure, or the unknown.
