Rufus the pig has already sailed the seven seas on a pirate ship. Now he dreams of the Moon, the stars and Mars! So he bids his mateys goodbye and reports for duty at the space centre. But Commander Luna tells him: "No pigs in space!" Why? Because Pigs pester the pilot, squeeze out all the toothpaste, do loop-the-loops in the cabin and they always want to push buttons.

This is the third tale about the adventurous pig, Rufus.
