Earth Day Writing!

The astronauts are on their way to the moon, they look out the spaceship window. The earth looked amazing, the blue oceans and the brown land looked stunning. Then without warning, a sound came from the crontrols. BEEP BEEP!! the astronauts got a fright and floated to the controls. "The oxygen tank has a crack in it!!" shouted one of the astronauts. OH NO! They had to fix it fast, or they were going, to run out of oxygen. All they had was some duck tape, and some chewing gum. They put there suits on just in case and stuffed some chewing gum in the crack and put duck tape over top. Will they survive?.... DA DA DAAA!

  1. Morning Rebecca, what on earth (or not on earth) will happen to them! I was thinking how tricky it is to write the sound for Space shuttle alarms, as some of them are really intense and screechy. I wondered what might go through an Astronauts mind when an alarm goes off too.
    It sounds like they may have a character like MacGyver on board? You might need to ask Mum and Dad about MacGyver.
    Thanks for sharing Rebecca.

  2. Hi Rebecca, another cliff hanger ending! It sounds like the your astronauts may need to do some quick scientific thinking to get out of this. Do they have a back up oxygen tank? Maybe there is a space station with supplies on the moon and they could make it there in time?
    Good luck!

    P.S. It would be very handy to have a MacGyver type character on board.
