■ Primary Axis
- Entry: Outer-space exploration as inward descent
Reason: The farther the protagonist travels from Earth, the more the mission exposes inner isolation rather than cosmic revelation.
Related Film: Solaris - Middle: The father as unreachable myth
Reason: The absent father is not merely a person to find, but a symbolic authority whose obsession deforms the son’s emotional life.
Related Film: The Lost City of Z - Core: Transcendence collapsing into finite human connection
Reason: The search for ultimate meaning ends not in cosmic discovery, but in the necessity of returning to limited human bonds.

■ Secondary Axes
- Professional composure as emotional dissociation: Heroic discipline functions as a mask for grief, fear, and inherited silence.
Related Film: First Man - Frontier obsession as moral isolation: The journey to the edge becomes a confrontation with a figure consumed by the absolute.
