Description: Moonlight Mile
Much like the anime series Planetes, Moonlight Mile is a more realistic look into life in space. It tells the story of mountain climbers Gorou Saruwatari and Lostman, who are famous for climbing the highest peaks in the world. They spot the ISA Space Station in the sky, and inspires them to become astronauts.
However, in the process a new energy source known as "Helium 3" is discovered on the moon. NASA begins a project known as "Nexus" in order to fully harness Helium 3's energy and become the next big energy source for humanity. Lostman and Gorou attempt to join the project in their quest for outer space.
