Very interesting story so far. I enjoy interacting with the different characters and it sets up a good level of intrigue and conflict. "Unknown" really catches my attention in particular, and the game succeeds in creating a feeling of temptation in terms of wanting to give in to curiosity even while building care for the mission.

Theme interpretation
I chose to mix some of the literal interpretation (spaceflight) with the risks and challenges of business, distance, isolation, and relationships. As an interactive fiction I used it to explore the theme through language.
