むった
＜不運に縁がある兄･六太と
ひびと
栄光の日生まれの弟･日々人＞
Older brother Mutta is plagued by bad luck.
Born under a lucky star, younger brother Hibito becomes the first Japanese moonwalker.
＜日本人初のムーンウォーカーと
なった日々人は➡
月面での事故の影響による
パニック障害を克服するため➡
To treat the panic disorder that's afflicted him since a lunar accident, Hibito went to Russia.
リハビリの日々を送る｡
一方 日々人の遥か後ろから➡
But now, Mutta is finally one step closer to the moon.
月を目指し始めた六太は
ついに新たな一歩を踏み出す＞
During NEEMO training, he will live in the environment closest to that of the moon,
ニーモ
＜ＮＥＥＭＯ訓練｡地球上で最も
月面を再現できる海底基地で➡
within a simulated lunar habitat.
シミュレーション生活をする
というもの＞
For this training, his life will be in real danger.
＜死の危険も伴う
油断できない訓練｡➡
In the coming days, Mutta and the other astronauts will face difficult trials.
六太達に重い試練がのしかかる＞
Swayed by a profound sadness
My daydreams lay a bouquet at my feet
space brothers
I stand atop a brand new world
Hoping to catch whatever falls out of this unprecedented miracle
They're here yet again
The days I'll spend growing distant from you
I'll have miles to go before I sleep in peace
I can see the faint radiance of hope
It got mixed into your blood one day and hasn't let you go
That's all
My body grows nimbler by the day
And my heart's shedding tears because it can't keep up
But I lost something once I became an adult
My light slumber
I can see the faint radiance of hope
It's mixed into your blood, so I'll never let you go
That's all
My body stands atop a stage that it won't run away from even if it rains
That makes me break out into a sprint, so goodbye
My midnight slumbers
#85 On the Moon
(ラブ)今しがた 資材置き場に
うちが注文してた➡
It seems they just unloaded the special materials we requested at the drop site.
特殊部材が放り込まれたそうだ｡➡
直径７０センチの水の入った
ビーチボールだと…｡
A water-filled beach ball with a seventy-centimeter diameter.
(ラブ)ボールを何に使う気だ？
説明しろ ムッタ｡
What's the ball used for?
Explain it, Mutta.
なんば
(南波六太)えっ…いや➡
Huh? Er, well...
I never ordered a ball...
俺が注文したんじゃね～けど｡
ボール…水中でサッカーする？
Are we playing underwater soccer?
(ラブ)じゃあ ケンジか？
Was it you, Kenji?
Yeah.
僕もムッ君を見習って 時間削減の
余地を探そうと思ってね｡➡
I wanted to follow Mu's example, and look for ways to save time.
で…見つけたんだよ｡
And I found something...
と言っても 以前の考えが
浅かっただけなんだけど｡
But really, it's that I simply failed to think things through earlier.
これ見て｡大容量アンテナの
元の設計図だ｡➡
Take a look at this.
This was the original blueprint for the high-capacity antenna.
金属パーツで こいつを四台
組み立てる予定だった｡でも…｡
The plan was to build four of these from metal parts.
However...
(ｹﾝｼﾞ)月でも隕石やデブリの衝突が
稀にある｡➡
On the moon, you'd have to worry about asteroids and space debris.
その衝撃で発生する
無数の二次デブリ｡➡
Any impacts generate more debris.
それぞれの威力は
ライフルの銃弾より大きい｡➡
And each speck has more impact than the bullet from a rifle.
アンテナに当たって破損する
可能性は少なからずある｡
It's wholly possible that the debris could damage the antenna.
実際にアンテナを作る
技術者たちなら➡
Engineers who design real antennae know they need to protect them.
無防備では済まさないはずだよ｡➡
この船の写真のアンテナみたいに
カバーで覆うと思うんだ｡
So I thought we should use a cover like the one in this picture.
電波だけ通すカバーか…
なるほど 確かに必要だ｡
A cover that only permits radio waves through.
Yes, we'd definitely need that.
And therefore,
というわけで こんな風に
設計図を書き直してみた｡
I reworked the blueprint.
(ｹﾝｼﾞ)ビーチボールを台座に載せて
アンテナ完成！
We'll put a beach ball on the stand, and our antenna's complete.
ハッ｡随分 楽になったな｡
(ｱﾝﾃﾞｨ)手抜き 万歳｡
That's much easier.
Shortcuts always help.
《やるじゃね～か ケンジ》
Good job, Kenji.
(ﾊﾐﾙﾄﾝ)さあ みんな
｢船外｣の時間だよ｡
Okay, guys.
Time to head outside.
づれ
水中での作業は やり辛えな｡➡
Doing this work in the water is hard.
月でやったほうが
はえ
早えんじゃね～か 実は｡
It must be faster to do this on the moon.
ムッ君 これ
フレームを立ててから➡
Mu, wouldn't it be easier to attach the wall to the frame first,
壁をつけてくより 先に壁を
つけとく方が やりやすいかも｡
rather than erect the frame before attaching the wall?
《確かに…》
He's right!
フッフッフ…奇遇だな ケンジ｡
俺も今 そう思ってたところだ｡
Imagine that, Kenji...
I was thinking the same thing.
(無線:六太)よし｡
(無線:ｹﾝｼﾞ)できた｡
Okay.
All done.
(無線:六太･ｹﾝｼﾞ)せ～のっ！
Up we go!
こっちの方が効率いいな｡
(無線:ｹﾝｼﾞ)よし 次いこう｡
This is far more efficient.
All right, on to the next step.
城壁を築いてる気分だね｡
It feels like we're building a castle wall.
Considering how simple constructing the debris shield looks, this is pretty tough.
(無線:六太)地味に大変だよな～｡
二次デブリ防護壁｡➡
こっちも まだまだあるけど
We still have a ways to go here,
but I should get started on the charging stations.
充電ポストの製作に
取りかからね～と｡
(無線:六太)高さ４０センチの
ポストを六台作る｡➡
Six stations, each forty centimeters high.
小物だけど手こずりそうだ｡
なんせ水中の このやり辛さ！
They're small, but I have a feeling they could take a lot of work.
Given how hard it is to move in the water.
In that case, Mu...
(無線:ｹﾝｼﾞ)だったら ムッ君｡➡
アクエリアスⅡに
材料を持って帰って➡
You could take the materials into Aquarius, and build them inside.
中で組み立てれば
いいんじゃない？
(無線:六太)はは～ん｡
《そりゃそうだ｡小物は室内で
作った方が断然 早いよな｡➡
Of course.
Building smaller parts inside would be faster.
後は完成品を
外に設置するだけ…》
Then we just have to place them back outside.
さすが！
よく そこに気付いたなケンジ！➡
Impressive! You're really sharp, Kenji!
まったく奇遇だなぁ｡
俺も気付きかけてたところだ｡
Imagine that... I was reaching the same conclusion.
(無線:ｹﾝｼﾞ)どんどん いこう！
(無線:六太)おう！
Let's keep it going!
Yeah!
《フッフフ｡幸福を呼ぶ
ウミガメの効果か…➡
I don't know if it's because the sea turtle brought us good luck,
あの時あたりから
ケンジがパワーアップした｡➡
but since that moment, Kenji's been powered-up.
作業をスピーディーに
こなしながらも 常に時間短縮➡
He always works quickly,
while thinking up ideas to save time and increase our work efficiency.
作業の効率化に結びつく
アイデアを出し続ける｡➡
さらに呪文のように…》
And twice...
ふ～っ｡スーパンダマン｡
Supandaman.
《などと謎の言葉を発しては
ニヤけるケンジを➡
...I've heard Kenji say some gibberish,
すでに２回見た》
and then smile like a fool.
Okay, all good.
(無線:ｹﾝｼﾞ)よ～し ＯＫ！
(無線:六太)サクサク進むな！
We're making a lot of progress!
Up we go!
(無線:ｹﾝｼﾞ)せ～のっ！
But I bet Kenji's doing the same thing I am.
《それでも本当は
ケンジも俺と同じなんだろう》
(ｹﾝｼﾞ)⦅そ そんな…⦆
N-No way...
《忘れたわけじゃない｡➡
We haven't forgotten what we were told.
思い出さないように
してるだけだ》
We're just trying not to think about it.
Only one of us can make it...
《ケンジと俺 どちらか１人…》
《チクショー｡
気を抜くと頭をよぎる》
Damn, the second I let my mind wander, it all comes back.
(無線:ｱﾝﾃﾞｨ)おい｡
(無線:六太)あ？
Hey.
Huh?
I brought the wall.
(無線:ｱﾝﾃﾞｨ)壁 持ってきたぞ｡
Wow! That's great, Andy!
おお～!!すっげぇ アンディ！
(無線:ｹﾝｼﾞ)さすがだね！
You really came through!
I'll set these down here.
(無線:ｱﾝﾃﾞｨ)置いとくぞ｡
サ…サンキュー アンディ｡➡
Thanks, Andy!
いやぁ～
アンディがいて よかったな｡
(無線:ｹﾝｼﾞ)ああ｡
Yeah, it's a good thing Andy's on our team...
Yes.
ムッタの注文してた部材も
届いてたから…｡
The materials Mutta ordered have arrived.
エスイーブイ
ＳＥＶで運んできたよ｡
I brought them over with the SEV.
(無線:ﾊﾐﾙﾄﾝ)わかるかい？
Can you see them?
Is this the one?
(無線:六太)これか？
(無線:ﾊﾐﾙﾄﾝ)そうそう その箱｡
Yep, it's that box.
サンキュー ハミルトン｡
Thanks, Hamilton.
(ｹﾝｼﾞ)なあ ムッ君｡
Hey, Mu...
Huh?
今さらだけどさ アンディの
髪型って変わってるよね｡
It's a little late to say it...
But isn't Andy's hair kinda funny?
ぷぷっ 奇遇だな｡
俺も ずっと思ってたぜ｡
Imagine that... I feel the same way.
何て注文するんだろうね あれ｡
I wonder what he tells his barber.
う～ん ていうか…
散髪の途中で帰ったんじゃない？
Actually, it looks like he left in the middle of his haircut.
《メシ食わんのか あいつら…》
Aren't they gonna grab some food?
よし できた！
Okay! All done!
充電ポスト６個！
(ｹﾝｼﾞ)終わったね｡
Six charging stations!
We're done.
まさか 休憩時間内に
全部 出来てしまうとは…｡
I didn't think we'd finish them all during our break.
As always, when I'm working with Kenji,
《結局 ケンジと共に
力を出し合った時にこそ➡
いろんな事が うまくいく》
everything seems to go right.
なあ ケンジ…｡
Hey, Kenji...
俺ら この先さ…どっちか
片方だけが月へ行く時がくるけど｡
Only one of us will get to go to the moon...
どういう結果になっても
ケンジは最高のパートナーだよ｡
But no matter what happens, you'll always be the best partner I could ask for.
奇遇だね ムッ君｡
Imagine that, Mu...
僕も今 そう思ってたところだ｡
I was thinking the same thing.
メシ 食うか？
Let's get some food.
Yeah.
｢ムッタへ｡月面望遠鏡について
質問くれて ありがとう｡➡
"Dear Mutta...
I appreciate the questions you've been asking about the lunar telescope,
訓練で それを作ろうとしてくれる
なんて とてもうれしいです｡➡
and I'm thrilled that you've been trying to incorporate it into your training.
だけど ごめんなさい｡ずっと
計画していた 月面望遠鏡を➡
But I'm sorry.
The NASA committee heavily criticized our proposal for constructing
月で建設するという案は
問題点を多数指摘され➡
a lunar telescope on the moon.
ナサ
ＮＡＳＡの協議の結果
不採用となってしまいました｡➡
And, as a result, it has been tabled.
新たな 別の案を考えます｣｡
We will need to draft a new proposal."
(ラブ)くれぇな また節電か？
It's so dark... Conserving electricity again?
(ﾊﾐﾙﾄﾝ)そうなんだ ごめんね｡
でも よく考えてよ｡➡
Yep, sorry about this.
But think of it this way...
昔は １機しかなかったｱｸｴﾘｱｽが
今は ３機あるんだよ｡➡
There used to only be one Aquarius.
Now we have three.
なのに ライフサポートブイは
変わらず１棟のままなんだ｡➡
But we still depend on a single life support buoy.
そりゃあ 電力不足にもなるよね｡
That explains the power conservation.
宇宙飛行士の大事な視力が
落ちたら どうすんだい？
What if you ruin your astronauts' eyesight in the process?
Oh, the idea that your eyesight worsens from reading in the dark is just an urban legend!
あ～ その暗い所で本を読んだら
目が悪くなるっていう都市伝説➡
ウソらしいよ！
ムッ君 ミーティング始めるよ！
Mu! Our meeting's about to start!
(ラブ)さあて…基地建設も
残りわずか｡
Right!
Okay, there isn't much work remaining on our Moonbase.
数々の工夫の甲斐あって 俺らは
予想以上に時間を作れたわけだが｡
Our improvisations have bought us plenty of time.
にも関わらず 月面望遠鏡の製作を
始めねえのは 何でだ ムッタ？➡
So why haven't you begun the lunar telescope, Mutta?
時間があるのに やらねえってのは
一番の失態だぞ｡
If you have the time but don't build it, you'll have no excuse.
とりあえず 注文してた
材料は 届いたんだ｡
I received the materials I requested.
月面望遠鏡の反射鏡部分を
これで表現しようと思って｡
I planned to use these for the lunar telescope's mirrors.
六角形のパネルと そこに
貼り付ける フィルムミラー｡
Hexagonal panels and reflective film to cover them.
だけど これ 使わないかも｡
月面望遠鏡は 知り合いの➡
But I don't think we can use this.
I know an astronomer who, alongside her colleagues, has been working on a lunar telescope.
天文学者が 他の学者たちと
共同で計画を進めてたから➡
メールで作り方を
聞いてみたんだけど➡
So I e-mailed her for some guidance on the construction.
その計画が どうも
白紙になるらしくて…｡
But apparently, their project has been scrapped.
それって…シャロン博士だよね？
Are you talking about Dr. Sharon?
Yeah...
だから 不採用と
わかっている物を➡
So, building something that's already been shot down is pointless.
ここで 俺が再現しても
意味がないんだ｡
｢できれば ちゃんと
ＮＡＳＡに認められ➡
"I want to give you a proposal
決定した計画を…
ムッタに伝えたいです｣｡
that has been approved by NASA."
でも 余った時間を
無駄にしねえよ｡
But I won't let our extra time go to waste.
なんか 別の何か
作れる設備を考えるよ｡
I'll think of...
something else to construct.
《だけど これで 望遠鏡以外に
何が作れるんだ？》
But what else can I use this stuff to make?
｢不採用になった
詳しい理由などは➡
"I'll wait to fill you in on the reasons why the proposal was rejected.
また今度話します｡
今は 何も気にせず➡
Right now, you should focus on enjoying your training, Mutta.
海底訓練を楽しんでね ムッタ｡
シャロンより｣｡
— Sharon."
Cutting back on energy again?
《また節電中か…こうも暗いと
気分まで暗くなるな》
When it's this gloomy, it's hard not to feel gloomy, too.
《さすがに 現実は厳しいなぁ…》
I guess life isn't ever easy...
I can feel my hopes, and chances, of fulfilling my promise
《あの日の約束を 叶える
自信も確率も…》
《どんどん小さくなって
消えてしまいそうだ》
fading gradually away...
《いや…俺よりシャロンの方が➡
No...
Sharon's probably feeling worse than I am.
相当ｼｮｯｸを受けたに決まってる｡
ﾒｰﾙじゃ平気そうに見せてるけど》
Her e-mails make it sound like she's fine,
《これが原因で シャロンの病気が
悪化したりしねえでくれよ》
but I really hope this won't aggravate her condition.
｢ムッタへ｡今日 モリソン博士
という 天文学の先生が➡
"Dear Mutta...
Today, an astronomer named Dr. Morrison visited our home with his colleagues.
仲間を連れて うちへ来て
くれました｡これから みんなで➡
We plan to develop a new lunar telescope proposal.
新たな月面望遠鏡の建設案を
考えていきます｡➡
次こそ ＮＡＳＡに認められる
ものを目指して｡➡
This time, we'll think of something that NASA will definitely approve.
私は まだ
諦めてはいません｣｡
I haven't given up yet.
It's a piece of cake!"
｢It's a piece of cake！｣｡
Of course...
《そりゃ そうだよな｡シャロン
なら こう言うに決まってる》
That's just what Sharon would say.
《It's a piece of cake！
楽勝だよ！》
It's a piece of cake...
Should be easy enough!
《使える…》
I can use these.
《いけるかも！》
This should work!
ＯＫ！ＮＥＥＭＯ管制室！➡
Okay...
NEEMO Control, this is Team 2.
こちら チーム２｡月面基地
モデル建設 終了です！
We've finished our Moonbase model!
≪お疲れ！≫
≪お疲れさま！≫
Great work!
Way to go!
All teams have completed their NEEMO training.
(ﾃﾞｰﾓﾝ)これで全チーム 任務を
終了する｡ご苦労だった｡
Well done.
＜ようやく全ミッションを
終えた 私たちは➡
Once we finished our tasks,
地上の気圧に体を慣れさせる作業
減圧を行うことになった＞
we had to go through decompression to prepare for our return to the surface.
(ﾊﾐﾙﾄﾝ)減圧は 丸一日だからね
みんなで映画を観るのが➡
The decompression process lasts an entire day.
Watching movies is a tradition.
恒例なんだよ～｡
It's so bright!
まっぶし～い！
The wind feels great!
気持ちいいな～ 風！ヒュー！
(ｹﾝｼﾞ)無事 帰還だね ムッ君｡
We made it back in one piece, Mu.
ああ！これで俺らも
うみんちゅ
立派な 海人だな！
Yeah.
Now we're bona fide sea divers.
Ｔシャツも買おう！
I have to buy one of those T-shirts.
(役員)聞きましたか？
バトラー室長｡
(ﾊﾞﾄﾗｰ)何をです？
Have you heard the news, Chief Butler?
What do you mean?
(役員)ミスター･ムッタの事ですよ
噂になってますよ｡
About Mr. Mutta... He's generating a lot of buzz.
(ﾊﾞﾄﾗｰ)ウ…ウワサ!?
B-Buzz?
Well, it'll come up at the NEEMO review.
(役員)まあ このNEEMO総評会議で
話されるでしょう｡
(ﾊﾞﾄﾗｰ)へ…変な噂じゃ
ないでしょうね？
I a-assume it's positive buzz.
(監視員)アンツでは ベン･ハｰトの
能力の高さが➡
Out of all the Ants, Ben Hurt distinguished himself as extremely capable.
目立ちましたね｡彼は
すぐ使えます｡➡
I'd say he's mission ready.
ワン
以上 チーム１の
総評報告です｡
That concludes our review of Team 1.
なるほど｡
では 次｡
Excellent.
Next.
チーム２担当 デーモン･コボル
です｡え～…月面基地建設では➡
I am Damon Cobol. I was responsible for Team 2.
During the Moonbase construction,
ケンジとムッタの日本人コンビが
時間短縮のアイデアを➡
the two Japanese astronauts, Kenji and Mutta, offered many time-saving ideas.
うまく活かしました｡独創的な
他のチームとは違い➡
Unlike the other teams, which started from scratch,
they based their Moonbase off its current design,
現状の基地を まず再現｡近い内に
実現可能な基地をテーマに➡
before coming up with a number of additions that could feasibly be effected in the near future.
追加設備を いくつか考案し
建設していました｡
中でも 我々が注目したのは
ﾅﾝﾊﾞ･ﾑｯﾀが 訓練終了間際に➡
We were especially impressed by the final addition, proposed at the end of their training.
出した設備案です｡元々彼は 月面
望遠鏡を作るつもりでしたが➡
Originally, he wanted to build a lunar telescope, but abandoned it for various reasons.
訳あって これを断念｡え～…
しかし 土壇場で 次のページの➡
But then, he proposed the system detailed on the next page,
ご覧のシステムを提案し 期限内に
無事 製作を終えました｡
and they completed it before the deadline.
こ これは…｡
Th-This is...
After seeing this proposal, it became very clear.
我々は このアイデアを見て
彼に感じたことが 一つあります｡
Of the astronauts living twenty meters below sea level for the past two weeks,
(ﾃﾞｰﾓﾝ)ナンバ･ムッタは 海底
２０ｍでの この２週間➡
他の誰よりも 月面にいた｡
Nanba Mutta was the one person who truly seemed to be on the moon.
The hasty hare and the slow and steady turtle
Are both headed toward the place they call their goals
We forgot something very important once we grew up
Forget tomorrow, what can I do right now?
But the two of us
Have always remembered
The importance of taking off
The heavy shackles of hesitation
A brand new world
Is always waiting one step ahead of us
Even our failures will give us strength
And that will be the start of a new world
Next time, on
Space Brothers
#86 For Tomorrow
Mutta's proposal seemed to be from someone who had actually been on the moon.
＜ムッタの月面基地の案は➡
実際に月にいたかのような
アイデアです＞
＜こうすれば
基地にいるクルーの気持ちも➡
This will help to cheer up the astronauts inside the base.
明るくなるってもんだ＞
Next time on Space Brothers:
"For Tomorrow"
