Summary
Anthony Bridgerton is the youngest test pilot to make it out of Astronaut Candidate Training in a generation, and now the youngest Naval Commander in a generation. He has no want of a personal life beyond his siblings' happiness. There'd be no point as he's always known he will die on a mission, leaving his family behind, just like his father. He doesn't make plans for the future beyond getting man to Mars, nor any real connections with people. Until he meets Kate Sharma and finds he can't help himself.
Kathani Sharma is mostly a washout. Her father had meant for her to become NASA Administrator, but she'd never really applied herself to the science, at least not like her sister. She'd always really been drawn to flying, and had only applied to the Air Force Academy because it was technically free. She's only started training as an astronaut (almost a decade after she probably should have) in some last ditch effort to fulfill her father's dreams. She has no plans to actually make a name for herself or be named to a space mission. Until she meets Anthony Bridgerton and resolves to prove him wrong out of spite.
Or: the astronaut AU with a moon base I'm making myself write?
