First On The Moon by Hugh Walters
Imagine being stranded on the moon with your only hope of escape, your rocket, irreparably damaged. This is the terrifying reality facing Chris. One minute he's exploring the lunar landscape, the next he's facing the chilling truth: he's marooned, possibly forever. His heart pounds with shock and apprehension as the desolate terrain stretches before him, a vivid nightmare made real. Every mile he trudges feels like an eternity, his desperation growing with each step. Then, the devastating discovery – his rocket, Columbus, lies crippled, a gaping hole in its side sealing his fate. How can he survive on this barren satellite, alone and with no way home?
Meanwhile, miles away, Russian cosmonaut Serge experiences his own lunar nightmare. A simple maneuver in his minitank goes horribly wrong, leaving him trapped and helpless, his vehicle overturned like a stranded beetle. With dwindling oxygen and no way to right his tank, Serge faces a slow, agonizing suffocation. Time is running out, and despair begins to set in. Will either Chris or Serge find a way to overcome the impossible and escape the moon's deadly embrace? Their struggles for survival intertwine in this classic tale of lunar exploration gone wrong.
