Kowalski makes jokes and tells stories about his life to help Dr Stone feel less nervous about being in space.

The astronauts are soon ______ that pieces of a damaged satellite are flying in their direction. Their spaceship is soon hit and destroyed. Dr Stone is knocked into space. It seems that she will die there. The fast moving camera work and losing ______ with the Earth makes everything even scarier(恐怖的).

______, Kowalski saves Dr Stone and they decide to go to the nearby International Space Station and see if their escape vehicle can be used to return to the Earth.
