Explanation

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 missions now.
