Opportunities Lost

A game for one to play on Twitter and others to helplessly witness.

You are an explorer science robot. You were built by an intelligent species limited in their opportunities for direct exploration by their biology. You are able to travel farther than they can, and they have sent you into an environment they cannot survive, to explore and discover. They love you. They cheer for you. They worry about you. They have lost others like you, and they mourn for your predecessors. They are waiting for your transmissions.
