Snoopy and Woodstock, welcome to the moon.
While we're here, we'll have the opportunity to collect vital data
as well as gain valuable experience for future missions into deep space.
So, the stakes are very high.
[laughs]
I see you've discovered the moon's reduced gravity. Oh!
It's only one-sixth of Earth's,
which, as you can tell, makes it much easier to move heavy objects.
[grunts]
Whew! [blusters]
You'll also notice that you're lighter and can bounce higher too.
Whoo! [laughs]
Whoo-hoo!
- [Snoopy] Whoo! - [Woodstock] Ahh!
- Ha-ha! - [laughs]
Whoa! Watch your step!
Whoo! Whew!
Those boot prints belong to Neil Armstrong.
[Neil Armstrong] That's one small step for man...
one giant leap for mankind.
Neil Armstrong was the very first person to set foot on the moon over 50 years ago.
Fifty years? Doesn't anyone ever clean up around there?
[CARA] Well, unlike Earth, the moon has no atmosphere.
So the footprints haven't been wiped away by winds or rain.
That means this great moment in human history
could potentially be preserved forever.
- Oh! - Oh!
[Charlie Brown] That's one small bunny hop for a beagle...
[Linus] And one big somersault for birdkind.
[Sally] A couple of dust angels.
[Lucy] And I believe they call that the hokeypokey?
[Snoopy chuckles]
I think you've made enough historic steps for the day.
[Snoopy grunts]
Snoopy? Woodstock?
Hello?
As you've noticed, the moon is covered in craters.
You're lucky that wasn't a big one.
Studying craters also happens to be a very important part of your next mission.
Craters are holes made when a rocky space object hits another larger object
like the moon or Earth.
The moon and Earth have both been hit with a lot of the same objects
since they're relatively close.
But most of the Earth's craters have disappeared
because of erosion and weather.
One way to learn more about the objects that have hit the moon
is for you two to measure the width and depth of the craters.
Hmm.
[whimpers]
[CARA gasps] I can't believe it!
It appears you have discovered the golf club
astronaut Alan Shepard snuck onto his craft
during the Apollo 14 mission in 1971.
[birds chirping]
Commander Shepard had it specially designed to retract
so it would fit into his small allotment of personal items.
Ooh!
[grunts]
Looks like that birdie just got an eagle.
Whee-hoo-hoo-hoo!
[grunts]
[grunting]
- [Woodstock laughs] - [Snoopy howls, grunts]
- [both scream] - [screams]
[laughing]
Hey! The plot was about to thicken.
- [Woodstock laughing] - [Snoopy grunting]
[panting]
[inhales, grunts]
[shouts]
[inhaling, blowing]
[squeaking]
- [cheers, laughs] - [cheering]
[screams]
[laughs]
Huh?
[screams]
[screaming]
[both laughing]
[Charlie Brown] Astronauts, this is Houston. We've lost visual contact.
There's no way you could've trapped yourself in a crater, right?
[both gulp]
[both grunting]
[both groaning]
[whimpers]
[grunting]
[thuds]
[Snoopy sighs]
[gulps]
- [golf club hitting ball] - [Woodstock screaming]
[screams]
[laughs]
Whoo!
[sighs]
Hmm.
[man yodeling]
- Ah. - Whoo-hoo!
Huh? [screams]
[grunts]
Oh!
[whimpers]
Wow!
[grunts]
Ta-da!
- Whoo-hoo! - Whoo-hoo!
Huh?
- [Woodstock laughing] - Whoo-hoo-hoo!
Oh, good. You're back.
Excellent work, astronauts.
You've gathered valuable data about several of the moon's craters.
Only 180,982 to go.
- [Woodstock squeals] - What?
Oh, just kidding. You should've seen your faces.
- [laughs] - [Woodstock grunts]
