Exploration activities performed on the Moon by both humans and robotic spacecraft occur on a planetary surface that is comprised of unconsolidated fragmental rock material known as the lunar regolith. The lunar surface is covered by several layers of thick regolith formed by high-velocity micrometeoroid impacts, and is characterized by the steady bombardment of charged atomic particles from the sun and the stars. The lunar regolith includes rock fragments and, predominantly, much smaller particles that are generally referred to as lunar soil.  1, record 1, English, - planetary%20surface

The Extravehicular Mobility Unit, worn by Canadian Space Agency Astronaut Chris Hadfield represents more than 50 years of development and testing. It consists of 12 layers to protect astronauts during EVA's. The two inner layers comprise the liquid-cooling and ventilation garment. Next comes the pressure bladder layer followed by a seven-layer thermal micrometeoroid garment.  2, record 2, English, - pressure%20bladder%20layer

La combinaison de sortie extravéhiculaire que porte l'astronaute canadien Chris Hadfield sur la photo est le résultat de plus de 50 années d'expérimentation et de développement. La combinaison spatiale présente douze couches qui protègent l'astronaute lors des activités extravéhiculaires. Les deux couches internes constituent le refroidisseur par circulation de liquide et le ventilateur. Viennent ensuite une couche gonflable de pressurisation et une pièce de vêtement thermique composée de sept couches qui sert à protéger l'astronaute des micrométéorites.  2, record 2, French, - couche%20gonflable%20de%20pressurisation

Orbiting Geophysical Observatory(OGO), series of six orbiting observatories launched between 1964 and 1969 by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA) to study the earth's atmosphere, ionosphere, and magnetosphere and the solar wind. In order to provide global coverage, three of the satellites(OGO-2, OGO-4, and OGO-6) were launched into low polar orbits while the other three(OGO-1, OGO-3, and OGO-5) were placed in eccentric orbits ranging out as far as almost 92, 830 mi(150, 000 km). Each observatory carried 20-25 instruments, including cosmic ray detectors, counters, and telescopes, ionization chambers, Geiger counters, magnetometers, spectrometers, photometers, micrometeoroid detectors, and ion and electron traps. Among the significant achievements of the OGO program were the first observations of daytime auroras and of the protons responsible for the ring of electric current that surrounds the earth during magnetic storms, the collection of data showing the interaction of the solar wind with the earth's magnetosphere, and the verification of the existence of the plasmapause, the inner boundary of the region of trapped radiation in the magnetosphere.  2, record 3, English, - Orbiting%20Geophysical%20Observatory

The Extravehicular Mobility Unit(EMU) consists of an integrated Space Suit Assembly(SSA) and Life Support Subsystem(LSS) with other crew items designed for Extravehicular Activity(EVA) outside the shuttle Space Transportation System(STS) orbiter or ISS. The NASA EMU provides life support functions, such as oxygen supply, carbon dioxide removal, a pressurized enclosure, temperature control and micrometeoroid protection, so astronauts can leave their shirtsleeve environment and work effectively in space.  4, record 4, English, - extravehicular%20mobility%20unit

La combinaison qui protège les astronautes lors de leurs sorties dans l'espace compte parmi les plus importantes et plus complexes pièces d'équipement à leur disposition. Elle est en fait un mini-vaisseau spatial, capable de fournir tout ce qui est nécessaire à la vie et à la sécurité des astronautes pendant qu'ils travaillent dans le vide spatial. Connue officiellement sous le nom de scaphandre EMU (pour Extravehicular Mobility Unit), la combinaison est constituée de deux composantes principales : la combinaison spatiale comme telle (SSA, pour Space Suit Assembly) et le système de survie de base (PLSS pour Primary Life Support System).  4, record 4, French, - combinaison%20EMU

Dans l'usage, les termes «combinaison spatiale» et «scaphandre spatial» sont souvent utilisés pour désigner à la fois un générique, le «extravehicular mobility unit (EMU)» et un spécifique, le «space suit assembly», qui est une composante de l'EMU. Pour solutionner ce problème, lorsque l'on veut désigner l'EMU, il convient de spécifier «combinaison EMU» ou «scaphandre EMU».  3, record 4, French, - combinaison%20EMU
