Final answer:
There is not enough context provided in the excerpts to determine what flavor of ice cream and soda Emma chose. Both the dialogue and the astronomy article do not mention Emma's choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question "What flavor of ice cream and soda did Emma choose?" does not provide enough context or information within the excerpts from both Nora's dialogue and the article on the NEAR mission to give a specific answer. Nora's dialogue from what seems to be a play focuses on her interaction with children after they have been out in the snow, and there is no mention of Emma, ice cream, or soda.
The article on the NEAR mission refers to Ice Cream Sundaes and Mashed Potatoes in its title, but this is likely metaphorical and related to astronomy, not the actual food choices of a person named Emma.
