Ouritsu Uchuugun: Honneamise no Tsubasa

Shirotsugh Lhadatt serves in Honneamise's neglected space force without much conviction. Meeting Riquinni, a woman whose faith gives her life a larger purpose, prompts him to volunteer for an unprecedented mission: becoming the first human in space.

Training and technical setbacks are only part of the challenge. As the launch approaches, the program becomes entangled in his country's military ambitions, forcing Shirotsugh to pursue an ideal that others would use for very different ends.
