Space Fairy Tales
Шрифт:
– Ginger, did you do everything right? "Is this ship really going to take off," Rex asked. They moved away from the ship and after 5 minutes its engines started working. The spacecraft broke away from the earth and soared up, gaining altitude, headed for its planet.
– Hurrah! We did it! Long live Ginger, the savior of our planet! That's how friends, when one for all, and all for one, you can turn mountains! Polkan said. And our Ginger became a real hero, the hero of another fantastic story.
Space station
Attention!
Starting the countdown:
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1… Start!
The spacecraft, controlled by a team of astronauts, launched from the Skazka cosmodrome and headed for the International Space Station, where a team of cosmonauts from other countries was waiting for them with great impatience.
The commander of the crew on this ship was a well-respected polar bear named Umka. Yes, yes, this is the same little white bear with a black button nose, but now he has grown up and even became the commander of a spaceship.
Znayka and his friend Steklyashkin also flew with them, and the two of them will also participate in this space exploration team on the International Space Station.
There was also a group of tourists on board the ship – and this is a well-known to you (and even beloved by many children) team of the Puppy Patrol, led by Commander Ryder. They just participated in our festival “Teams of rescuers" and, becoming the winners in it, were awarded a ticket to a spaceship.
– Friends! – Zeke Rider addressed the puppies of his heroic team, and six brave dogs – Sturdy, Marshal, Rocky, Zuma, Sky and Chase – answered together:
– We are all here! The puppy patrol is ready to fly!
The team of Puppies did not yet know what was ahead, upon arrival at the International Station, they were also in for a surprise – a meeting with a group of British researchers, underwater rescuers. They temporarily decided to change their underwater Octobase to a spaceship, deciding to help in the exploration of outer space. Have you guessed who it is? This is also a well-known team of Octonauts together with their commander, Barnacles the polar bear.
Suddenly, the commander of the Umka ship noticed stowaway "hares" on his spaceship:
– It is not clear how they were able to secretly get on the ship? – the commander was surprised when he saw them on the control monitor screen. Meanwhile, the Hare and the Wolf were hiding in the cabin of the ship under the seats of the chairs. The wolf was full of indignation:
– It's all because of you, why did you get on this ship? And, as always, he let me down. Now we're trapped! Well, Hare, wait! Let's go home, I'll deal with you! – the Wolf whispered to the Hare.
–Why were you chasing me?" So, I had to, as always, to escape from you, run wherever my eyes look. In a hurry, I didn't even notice how I got to the cosmodrome, and to the ship that was ready to take off into space.
– Did you hear the announcement that the ship will soon dock with the station that is in orbit? So as soon as everyone leaves this ship, we will immediately kidnap him and return on it back to Earth. This will be our secret with you, so keep your mouth shut, Hare! – The Wolf said menacingly.
– No! I won't let you do it, even though I'm afraid of you, but I'm not a coward! – whispered the Hare, trembling all over. But then all these travelers will not be able to return to Earth in time, and they may all suffer! So I'm against it!
The wolf wanted to grab the Hare by its long ears, but....
While the Hare and the Wolf were arguing, the ship meanwhile docked in orbit with the Druzhba station.
– Welcome to our base! – the owners of this station greeted them. After docking, all the astronauts and their guests gathered in a large mess hall. The Wolf and the Hare, too, as they thought, sneaked in there unnoticed. In whatever situations the Wolf and the Hare did not find themselves, we remember it well, but in order to get right into space like this, they could only dream about it in a dream or in our fairy tale.
– You need to run back, let's agree, – the Wolf whispered, right into the Hare's ear. And then…
– Aha, here are two more assistants, – a bearish bass sounded right above their heads, – So, "hares”, welcome to our team.
The Wolf and the Hare crouched down in surprise. That's how the Wolf's plan immediately failed, without even having time to begin.
"Well, now we'll have to work, too," the Wolf grumbled, walking with a lazy gait behind the commander of the ship Umka.
And on the International Space Station, work did not stop for a minute. Each astronaut was busy with his own business. There were a lot of big and small stars shining around. The astronauts were watching them. From here, from the station, the stars were much closer and it was easier to see and photograph them. And also, it was possible to describe their condition and make calculations.
The space station was flying at high speed along its orbit, set by scientists. With the help of a powerful telescope, it was possible to view all the planets of our Solar system!
– Look, Steklyashkin, here is our planet Earth, it is blue, – the Expert explained to a friend. – She's one, two, Three from the Sun! See how beautiful it is, though not the biggest. From here, its atmosphere is clearly visible, which protects our planet from meteorites, space debris, from cold and harmful cosmic radiation. That's what this Earth's atmosphere and its magnetic field are necessary for our life on Earth.
– And now, let me take a look at this little planet that flies around the Earth. – asked Steklyashkin.
–Didn't you recognize her?" It's a satellite of the Earth, the planet Moon," laughed Znayka. Steklyashkin pouted in resentment at the Expert.
– Just… I just wanted to check if you remember the name of the Earth's satellite? – the friend justified himself.
– Better let's remember the names of all the planets of the Solar system, it will be useful for our new friends. – He noticed that the Wolf and the Hare, who came with the commander, were listening to them with great curiosity.
