Leo steps down from the first HELIX colony ship when Nova is seven, one small Earth-born boy among the new colonists, and for a moment the two children face each other through sealed visors, both shy. Nova waves. Leo waves back. Then they are running together across the red ground toward the domes while the four adults who raised Nova stand with their arms around each other, watching.
That night the two of them lie on the dome floor looking up, the way the first crew did on Sol 1. Nova points at the tiny blue star and tells him that is where he is from. Leo sits up and pats the floor: this is your world. They both burst out laughing. It is the moment the album's title comes true, children of two worlds, on one floor.
The still of the two of them waving appears again in Track 10, in the memory montage at the forward window of the NOVA.
