Gateway will be smaller than the International Space Station. . . . Gateway will have five modules. One or two of them, each about the size of a school bus, will house astronauts. Another module will provide solar electric power, for propulsion. Others will serve as an air lock for spacewalking astronauts and a docking port for vehicles. Astronauts will travel to the moon’s surface and back in a smaller, reusable craft.

–“Moon Mission,”
Jeffrey Kluger

Answer: The genres of these texts are different. Laika is a graphic novel, and "Moon Mission” is an informational text. But the texts are similar because they are both about space travel. They are also both about the idea of returning home. Laika's characters show a theme. They show that some people care more about achievement than safety. Also, the doctor cares about Laika returning home, but we know that the mission is not designed for that. A key detail in "Moon Mission" is that the astronauts will return home. It is an essential part of space mission. THIS ISS THE CORRECT ANSWER
