In Orbit

PrimevalWith the Britannia 7 space station still stuck in orbit without a qualified crew, Mrs. Noah and the others aboard set about trying to work out the basics of surviving in orbit. When the space station is equipped with such modern marvels as an artificial “space chicken” that disgorges sausage-like strings of eggs, it begins to look as though survival may be a bit more complicated than anyone thought. In the meantime, the BBC kindly provides two-way communication between those stranded on the space station and their families on Earth, and Mrs. Noah discovers that Mr. Noah has been comforted by their buxom next door neighbor.
