As soon as its air reached terrestrial density and composition, he removed his marshelmet. Goat rode the elevator to the ground level, left it and hurried down a corridor, reaching the outside airlock in time to admit the two figures. Adam entered first, easily confident, carrying his head like a king. Brute shambled behind him.
A moment later, he left the airlock and launched himself into space, flying swiftly toward the ship. He had come alone, but armed as he was, he was probably more than a match for anything they could bring to bear on him. He went directly toward the broad expanse of glass that marked the control room of the alien ship and looked in curiously.
They must be a good race, and we have seen excellent examples in you. "We can realize your desire to return home, but we ask you to come again. We will remember that you are not ten million light years, but five days, from our planet." When the conference was ended, Arcot and his friends returned to their ship. Torlos was waiting for them outside the airlock.
Run along, boy; I'm sleepy." He curled up in his cradle, wrapped his tail firmly around his body, and closed his eyes. There was a line waiting at the entrance to the freezer section, and Alan took his place on it. One by one they climbed into the spacesuits which the boy in charge provided, and entered the airlock.
Then we'll take off at once for the Icaria Desert, before the Mars City task force gets here. He and Maya walked hand in hand through the blasted airlock. The three groundcars were there, waiting. The two of them stood for a moment, before getting aboard the groundcars, and looked out together across the red desert toward the sinking sun. Death? Desolation? No, not for them.
Rodebush likewise cut off his power, although somewhat apprehensively, and a Nevian lifeboat entered the main airlock of the Boise. Then, at a table in the control room of Triplanetary's first super-ship, there was written the first Inter-Systemic Treaty.
But she was already climbing into a suit very much oversized for her, with the look of high excitement that Cochrane had forgotten anybody could wear. They got out of a tiny airlock that held just one person at a time. They started for the laboratory.
DuQuesne instantly applied power and snapped on a small searchlight. "If it's so small that we couldn't see it when we passed it, it's nothing to be afraid of. We'll be able to find it with a light." After some search, they saw an object floating in space-apparently a vacuum suit! "Shall one of us get in the airlock, or shall we bring it in with an attractor?" asked Loring.
Arcot and Morey won, and they quickly put on the loose-fitting ventilated cooling suits that they might live comfortably in the hot air outside for the thermometer registered 150°! The two men quickly walked over to the airlock, entered, closed it behind them, and opened the outer door. There was a slight rush of air, as the pressure outside was a bit lower than that inside.
There was one place no one would think to look for him, if he could manage to keep out of range of the viewscreen lenses ... the outer hull of the ship. If he could clamp himself to the hull, somehow, and manage to cling there during blastoff, he could follow Greg and Johnny right home. He checked the fuse on the airlock once again to make certain it would work.
