Muscular Laziness
(N.Z.P.A. -Reuter—Copyright) HOUSTON, July 29. During technical debriefing sessions in their quarantine quarters, yesterday, the moon landers said a cloud of dust had obscured their view as they were dodging a rocky outcrop just before making their highly successful touchdown on a relatively smooth patch of moon.
The public affairs officer, Mr John McLeaish, reported that the spacemen had found the one-sixth gravity of ‘*-e moon, “very pleasant to work and move about in, although it had the disadvantage of promoting muscular laziness.”
