An astronaut’s interstellar mission is a personal journey of a thousand second chances in an exhilarating short story by James S. A. Corey, the New York Times bestselling author of The Expanse series.

Roy Court and his crew are taking the trip of a lifetime—several lifetimes in fact—duplicated and dispatched across the galaxies searching for Earthlike planets. Many possibilities for the future. Yet for Roy, no matter how many of him there are, there’s still just one painful, unchangeable past. In what world can a broken relationship be reborn? The universe is so vast, there’s always room for hope.

Second chances through interstellar exploration

Humanity invents a way of traveling at near light speed by encoding people as energy and reconstituting them at the destination. So one traveler sneaks an engagement ring onto his body when he is scanned, because his ex-wife will also be one of the people sent to the stars. I didn't understand why, but the original encoded group is then sent on to further destinations, giving the main character even more chances at a do-over.

The story does understand just how wrong-headed the attempt at a do-over is.
