4 Panels
Panel 1
Very small, with Dária and Victória's faces. Dária is leaning towards Victória, as if she's telling her a secret.
Dária: I knew it, super top secret!
Panel 2, 3 and 4:
We see the two lines of soldiers standing. Nikita is still in front of them, finishing the briefing, and two Sargeants are standing behind him.
Nikita: Our mission is of the utmost importance! This may well be the next step on our empire's main endeavour: to understand and recover the lost technology of the Ancients; so that it may help us recover our own past. History will be made! And hopefully, your contributions today will allow Humanity to venture through the stars once again.

Aww Nikita’s so passionate <3 I love it
Hmm! I wonder what grounded them here if they’ve been in space before?
(Um… I realize that I’m replying to a comment that’s as old as the satellites >.<)
** Theoretical spoiler. I haven't read past here, but if you don't want to see my guess at the plot, stop reading this comment **
Maybe the Ancients' satellite was part of a ballistic missile defense network. The nation that put the satellites up there would be long gone, as well as the codes to deactivate the satellites. Now, they'd shoot down anything that tried to reach orbit. The hope for this mission would be to find as much of the satellite's tech as possible, so that the communications, security, etc. could be hacked, and shutdown codes could be sent to the satellite network.
Anyone else old enough to remember the Star Wars Defense Initiative (SDI)? Ronnie Raygun's favorite plan? He was gonna shoot Russian ICBMs down with space lasers.
