Johnny the younger member of the crew noticed trouble with the ship’s engines, damages which could affect the entire operation, even more it could put their life in danger.

4. Caught in the middle of this problem, captain Armstrong, is retiring into his cabin where he tried to decide the fate of millions of people and implicitly that of his crew. Pressed by the tension that enshrouded all the ship and by the time that was leaking, the captain decided to order the shuttle repair as soon as possible. Jonny with Tom, the strongest of those present, was committed to go outside to repair all the damages. After 4 hours while they faced the absence of air, the cold that passed through the protection suit and the reduced visibility, the two managed to solve the ship problems.
