a spacecraft for travelling to the Moon
The scaffolding that held the moon ship is scattered over an area of several acres, and for a brief moment or two the silent thousands have a glimpse of a steel body rushing at unbelievable speed towards the blue vault of heaven!
The Murders on the Moon-Ship.
And so the moon-ship, βTerraβ, plunged on through space.
Not two weeks ago, your first moon ship, designed, built, manned and launched under your personal direction, vanished without a trace somewhere on the further side of the Moon.
Our original flight plan had called for the moon ship to return with several tons of fuel left.
Our moonship would take four or five people to the Moon for a two-week stay.
We transferred from the spaceplane to the moonship, a metallic arachnid designed only for use in vacuum.
