  • Lanceurs (Astronautique)
CONT

Un nouveau danger menace les astronautes : la concentration de gaz carbonique, due à leur respiration. Un bricolage à l'aide de plastique et de ruban adhésif est réalisé pour utiliser un aspirateur, afin de souffler dans le réservoir d'hydroxyde de lithium et filtrer l'air, car si rien n'est fait, l'équipage mourra 1 jour avant d'atteindre la Terre.
