His best friend and copilot Greg Johnson was standing next to him. They both wore cumbersome white spacesuits suited to the lunar environment. All Jason could hear was Greg’s heavy breathing coming over the suit radio. He was also having a hard time keeping his own breathing steady. The landing had been a disaster. There were no backup plans for what had happened. They were stranded on the moon with no way home. “Damn!” Greg finally said in an unsteady voice. “We’re really screwed now. How could this happen?”Both men were staring at their lunar lander, which was lying on its side at the edge of a small crater. The crater was only four to six feet deep, but that had been enough for one of the lander’s support struts to become unstable and for the lander to topple over. “I don’t see any way to set it back up,” commented Jason thinking about what they needed to do and the equipment they had available to them. “We never considered this scenario.”“How about the mechanical arm on the rover?”
