The Mysterious Space Trooper One day on the 15th of September there was a mysterious but friendly space trooper. The space trooper was lonely and sad because he had nothing to do except skateboarding. He lived on the moon and he noticed there would be no one to be his friend because there are no people or any other friends that live in space but one day he found an alien and the alien didn’t want to be the space trooper’s friend because the alien thought the trooper was bad.
After that, the strong trooper was doing a skateboard trick but his skateboard /broke apart and then he fell over and also he hurt his knee when the skateboard was broken. There was no one to help him so he was upset and he also couldn’t do his skateboard tricks with

They are ready for their mission to go the moon! John wants to be an astronaut when his older and Bob wants to be a scientist and an astronaut.
After 5 minutes they blasted off into space and they went past the atmosphere with their super fast spaceship. The spaceship was made of metal and iron. The spaceship had twenty boosters and it had a massive fuel tank. Then there is trouble, some parts are falling off the spaceship so they quickly landed on the moon.
When they arrived they saw a weird thing on the moon. Bob thought it was an alien but John thought it was a space trooper and he also thought he was upset. So they went to help him and the nice space trooper was so excited that they came. The boys also gave him a new skateboard and they got all of the rocks out of the skateboarding area. The energetic space trooper felt better and he showed his skateboarding tricks to the boys. They were friends and John and Bob had to leave. So they said bye and they left. They went home safely and the trooper was upset because they couldn’t stay for that long and the boys were proud that they could meet a space trooper in

John wanted to go to space again same as Bob. So they had a plan to go to space again. They fixed their spaceship’s engines, windows and they filled the petrol tank with fuel. They also cleaned the spaceship and it looked like new. Bob made an experiment to make the powerful engine even more powerful. John added a massive booster which is seven tons. He also adds a jet engine which is faster than the other one. The two boys helped each other to make their spaceship better.
They started the spaceship’s engines and it sounded like thunder by the new jet engine. They went off and they were near space already. Chapter 3: Space Disaster
When we made it to space there was space junk and there was lots of it. It is everywhere and we couldn’t see anything because our windows were covered with junk. So we had to go outside with our space suits to get rid of the junk. It took a long time but we managed. After that, there was more space junk and it got in our engines. Our engine is full of it and then the main engine failed so we only had the jet engine and the backup engine.
We used the backup engine and it nearly failed. We are going to be doomed! The spaceship was nearly falling in parts and our spaceship was getting destroyed. We quickly landed on the moon and we saw the space trooper. The trooper was so glad that we came and he was full of joy. We told him if he could help us and he agreed.
Chapter 4: Finally
During the late 1950’s the space race began. This was a race to see who could achieve the most space firsts, between the USA and Russia. Sonny, O’Dell, Sherman, Roy Lee and Quentin live in Coalwood, West Virginia.The space race inspired these boys, who decide to call themselves the Rocket Boys, to make their own rockets. The BCMA (Big Creek Missile Agency) was born when Sonny called a meeting with his friends in his room and discussed how he wanted to build rockets. With the help from the a man at the town’s machine shop, Mr.Bykovski, the BCMA built its first rocket, called Auk I. The rocket was named after an extinct bird that was unable to fly. Auk I was equipped with a wooden bullet shaped nose cone, an aluminum tubing body, fins, and a soldered washer at the bottom. The boys mixed together black powder and postage stamp glue to act as fuel for their rocket. The rocket flew up 6ft, and then fell back down. The rocket boys later found out that the reason their rocket stopped flying was because the solder melted. The BCMA was happy with the result from the rocket, because it was their first ever rocket to fly.
...ause it was the mission that NASA was able to put the first man up onto the moon. Neil Armstrong was the pilot of the Apollo 11 flight. There was a special shuttle that was attached to the spaceship; it was called the Eagle. The Eagle was designed to transport some crew members down to the moon. Armstrong was responsible for driving and landing the shuttle safely down to the moon. While on his way down to the moon, Armstrong realized that he was starting to run out of fuel. Thankfully, Armstrong did have enough to land on the moon and make it back up to the spaceship. When the Eagle was leaving the spaceship for the first time up in space, it wasn't completely depressurized so there was something like a gas bubble come from the shuttle as it was on its way to the moon. The gas bubble moved the shuttle off course and the Eagle actually landed four miles off course.
V. Film summary: The Right Stuff begins during the time of 1947, on an an air force base called Muroc Army Air Field. At this time many test pilots are trying out new advanced air craft carriers that are capable of breaking the sound barrier. At this time, Chuck Yeager is offered to test the X-1, an aircraft that can break the speed of sound, but he was previously in a horseback riding accident in which he broke a few of bones prior. He is fearful that this accident will limit him to be able to fly the X-1. So, later on Yeager is able to carry out his mission and for the first time actually break the speed of sound. The film then progresses to the year 1953 at Edwards Air Force Base, which is the exact same air force base, but it was renamed after one of the test pilots that died in a mission. At this time, Yeager and other test pilots compete to se who actually has the right stuff. The USSR launched Sputnik, the first satellite into space which scares the US because it is the first major advancement in space technology. This event puts the space race between the United States and the USSR into full effect. At this time the names Alan Sheppard and John Glenn become apparent. As the film continues, seven final astronauts are chosen to form the Mercury 7. Many men were not selected, like Ch...
... “of landing a man on the moon and returning him safely to earth” The space program fascinates the American people. In the early 1960s whenever space flights were launched during school hours students would gather in gyms and auditoriums to watch the lift offs on television. The race to the moon continued through the 1960s. It is one of the nations single most expensive projects of the decade, costing $56 billion.
One thing that helped build a space rocket was a V-2 rocket built by the Germans during WWII. Throughout the years the V-2 rocket turned into the Saturn V rocket. The Saturn V was a rocket NASA built to send people to the moon. The Saturn V rocket was 363 feet tall and about the height of a 36-story-tall building. The Saturn V that launched the Skylab space station only had two stages. The Saturn V rockets used for the Apollo missions had three stages. Each stage would burn its engines until it was out of fuel and would then separate from the rocket and then the next one will start. If it wasn’t for the V-2 and German scientist, von Braun the USA would probably have not traveled to space. The USA sent astronaut John Glent to circle the Earth in 1962 to retaliate the launching of Sputnik. In 1969, a milestone was reached when the USA sent astronaut Neil Armstrong to the moon. The technology on the ship that took Neil to space was equivalent to a basic calculator built in 1980. They took a 64Kb computer (the moon lander) with them to space. It had approximately 64...
The sky, as far as Heller could see, was overwhelmed with coal-black explosions that violently jerked the ship in all directions. Out of sheer stupidity, the pilot panicked and sent the plane into a vertical dive. A deafening, paralyzing, horrifying dive which petrified Heller. The co-pilot wrestled the controls away from the pilot and sharply yanked up on them, pressing Heller into the cold metal floor, which kept him from falling to his death below. Regaining his sanity, the pilot rescued them just in time by seizing the controls back from the co-pilot, leveling the ship off ironically back in the middle of the buffeting layer of flak from which they had magnificently escaped only seconds
The Wright Brothers had done other things but were still going to school.They then came back to the models of their flying toys and thought, what if we could build a model big enough and made for us to ride on it?But that was only a dream because there had never been a flying machine for people to ride,but what other people saw as...
The Blast Off was lined with photos of rockets charging into space. George settled into the bar stool, took a drink and put the glass down. Joe recognized this as the preparations prior to the start of a story and hoped he had heard it only a few times before.
As we went over this big hill there were miles of cars. But none of them were moving they were just sitting. The bus driver stopped the bus. The teachers got off to see what was wrong. The bus driver told us to stay on the bus. They ran to the nearest car there was a man sitting the bus
That day he got home and remembered that when he was checking he saw a man standing in the wall. Then Chris is thinking that the man is going to think that he is a thief. He was so worried he hoped the man didn’t though he was a thief. When he bend down and scoped the money he saw someone
There were many milestones in creating “the first airplane.” Many inventors like Joseph Michael and Jacques Etienne Montgolfier who started all the talk that flying is actually possible by launching their first successful hot air balloon in 1783. However, the Wright brothers are accredited with the end result of the airplane’s first successful flight. The Wright Brothers invented and did their testing of their engine propelled airplane in Kill Devil Hills and Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. By 1903, the brothers built a biplane named through history as the Wright Flyer (Ethell 19). Through the works of the Wright brothers and other equally important contributors we prove that humans can fly. The entire world was abuzz at what the Wright Brothers had achieved. Finally, after all these years of enviously watching birds fly over their...
Lennie and George decided to go the pool hall one night. There was a girl there that got Lennie’s eye. She was wearing a bright red dress. It interested Lennie and he grabbed her sleeve and wouldn’t let go. The girl was full of fear because some stranger wouldn’t let go of her dress. He held it tighter and tighter and wouldn’t let go. After that night he found out that the girl was pressing charges against him. Every day the police were on the look out for Lennie. But George and Lennie escaped from the town by hiding in a ditch until nightfall. After the night of lying in a ditch Lennie and George started to hitchhike. They hitchhiked all the way to Salinas Valley, California. They got there the next day which was their destination.
It was the largest ship ever built, though it was more engine than anything. Captain Wyatt McKenzie and his carefully selected crew dared to ride the newly redesigned Jump Drive ship far beyond the known galaxy.
