Going into space is a lot of work, so there was a lot of planning. We decided to reach

the speed of 17,500 miles per hour. The space shuttle’s large external tank is loaded

with more than 500,000 gallons of super cool liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen, which are mixed and burned together to form the fuel. We had to figure out if the spaceship was big enough for 25 people,

and if it was to stuffy or not. We needed to see if they sleep standing too. Planning was a big deal but food was the second biggest. We bought a large supply of can food that

can last 25 people on the spaceship, and the food wouldn’t spoil. Which is a lot of food.

Uranus is the seventh planet in our solar system. It is the farthest planet that can be seen without the use of a telescope. It is about 1,786,400,000 miles from the sun. The diameter is 31,763 miles.       Uranus is made up of a swirl of gases, liquids, and solids. It has no solid surface to stand on. The solids have settled to the center of the planet. These include silicon, iron, and a basalt like rock. The core of Uranus is about the size of Earth. At the outer edge of the core, solid elements mix with the atmosphere around the rock. It is an ocean that is about 5,000 miles deep. It is thought to be mostly water and a mixture of liquid ammonia and methane. An interesting thing about Uranus' ocean, is that it is extremely hot-almost 8,000 degrees Fahrenheit. At the surface of this ocean, there is a gaseous layer that is 4,000 to 5,000 miles deep. This layer of atmosphere is mostly liquid hydrogen, methane and some helium. The methane gas gives Uranus its blue-green color. Above the gas layer is another layer made of hydrogen and helium. It takes 84 years for it to complete one orbit or one Uranus year. The mass of this planet is 14.5 times larger than that of Earth. Its density is about 1.27 grams per cubic centimeter and the force of gravity is ninety percent of that on Earth.       

URANUS!!!

Kuaii is a new star that we found on our trip into outer space. The star is small and

the color is green and purple. It is very bright. There are swirls and circles on the outside of the star. With many craters, it looks like Earth’s moon. This is the star that we will be using as our source of

energy.

5NEW PLANETS

JIE-YO IS A PLANET THAT IS CLOSEST TO THE STAR KUAII. IT HAS 4 MOONS WHICH IS KURY, PALM,

HEBA, TOSH. IT IS FULL OF VOLCANOES BUT THE WEIRD THING IS THAT IT IS NOT HOT AT ALL.THE

TEMPERATURE CAN GOES TO -100 DEGREES CELCIUS. IT TAKE JIE-YO 111 EARTH DAYS TO

REVOLVE AROUND KUAII.THE DIAMETER OF IT IS 30,778 MILES. IT HAS NO ATMOSPHERE AND NO

WATER.

JIE-YO

XINH IS A PLANET OF EVIL DUE TO THE WEATHER CONDITIONS. IT CAN RANGE UP TO 1200 DEGREES CELCIUS. THERE ARE PLENTY OF STRONG WINDS AND HARSH VOLCANOES. THE SURFACE OF THIS PLANET IS BUMPY AND ROCKY, AND CAN NOT HOLD ANY CIVILIZATION. THERE ARE LOTS AND LOTS OF CRATERS. THERE IS NO ATMOSPHERE AND HARDLY ANY WATER. THE DIAMETER OF XINH IS 35,769 MILES AND IT HAS NO MOONS. IT IS THE 2ND CLOSEST PLANET TO OUR STAR.

XINH

THIS PLANET IS KNOWN FOR THERE PEACE AND TRANQUILITY PERSONALITY. THIS PLANET BARELY

HAVE ANY VOLCANO OR MOUNTAINS. THE WEATHER IS PERFECT FOR FARMING AND PLANT GROWTH. IT

HAS PLENTY OF WATER AND HAS A VERY CLEAR ATMOSPHERE. SARANG HAS A MAGNETIC FIELD DUE TO ITS IRON CORE. THE AVERAGE TEMPERTURE IS

35 DEGREES CELCIUS. THE DIAMETER OF SARANG IS 7,930 MILES. SARANG HAS ONE MOON NAME GUI. IT IS THE 3RD CLOSEST PLANET TO OUR STAR SO IT IS NOT TOO HOT OR NOT TOO COLD. THIS PLANET IS

VERY SIMILAR TO EARTH. SARANG IS THE PLANET IN WHICH WE SHOULD COLONIZE.

SARANG

DANGO IS A PLANET OF MISERY. LOKKING AT IT WILL MAKE YOU CRY BECAUSE OF THE FEATURES ON THE SURFACE. THERE ARE PLENTY OF DENTS

ON THE PLANET. HEAVY STORMS CAN BE MEASURED ON THIS PLANET. STRONG WINDS

COLLIDE TOGETHER, BECAUSE WINDS TRAVEL IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS. THIS PLANET IS SIMILAR

TO THE DESERT. WHICH RANGES UP TO 100 DEGREES CELCIUS. THERE IS A GIANT BLACK DOT

ON DANGO. THAT GIANT BLACK DOT IS CALLED A-C. THERE ARE 45 MOONS AND THE DIAMETER IS

31,764 MILES. THIS PLANET IS 4TH IN LINE.

DANGO

PIGKEN IS A PLANET OF SHYNESS. EVENTHOUGH THIS PLANET IS SHY, IT IS VERY ACTIVE. FIVE VOLCANOES ERUPT EVERY OTHER HOUR. THERE ARE NO STORMS AND IT HAS A GREAT ATMOSPHERE. IT ONLY HAVE 10% OF WATER. IT SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD PLACE FOR COLONIZATION BUT WE CAN NOT BECAUSE THE TEMPERATURE RANGES FROM -911 DEGREE CELCIUS. THE DIAMETER IS 45,555 MILES. IT HAS 6 MOONS . IT IS THE 5TH PLANET FROM THE STAR, KUAII.

PIGKEN

We both picked this planet for colonization because it is ideal for living. This planet has the right temperature and the right atmosphere for living! This new planet have a

surplus of water and it is a lot bigger than Earth. The soil is perfect for planting and/or farming. It have a firm crust that can be built on. This planet has only one moon. The bad thing about this planet is that it is not close to any

sun, and we might not know if there is going to be day or night. This planet has everything that humans can live up to. So we suggest this planet is just great for colonization.

Hope you had a nice trip with us and wish you could again. There will be lots of other times when we find new

planets, or lets just put it this way a new world!!!!

(>_<)

TIME FOR LANDING!!!!!
