Planet Selection

Job Description

Determine what 5 qualities our new home should have for human needs (e.g., atmosphere similar to Earth). Explain why each quality of life you chose is important in order to sustain life on this new planet. Include pictures and description of each in the presentation.

After you choose a planet, you must tell us how you will handle the conditions of the planet.

Specifics:

  • Why did you choose this planet?

  • 1. How would you adapt to the extreme temperatures and climate conditions on this new planet?

  • 2. What precautions would you take to protect yourself from the planet's potentially harmful atmosphere or lack of oxygen?

  • 3. How would you ensure a stable and sustainable source of food and water on this new planet?

  • 4. What plans would you make to handle the planet's unique gravitational forces or lack thereof?

  • 5. How would you maintain communication and connection with other team members or Earth while on this new planet?

  • 6. What strategies would you employ to handle any unforeseen natural disasters or emergencies that may arise on this new planet?

Planet 1:  Fhoebe Glands the 9th (Fo-bee)

Planet 1: Fo-bee has a slightly thinner atmosphere compared to Earth, with 20% oxygen, allowing for easy breathing. The gravity is 0.9 times that of Earth, giving a lighter feel. The landscape is rich in lush forests and vast oceans, with ample fresh water sources. It is home to unique plant and animal life, including bioluminescent trees and floating jellyfish-like creatures.  There are animals similar to turtles, birds, porcupines and bunnies. However, periodic strong electrical storms pose a significant threat to living on Fo-bee.

Planet 3:  Silease Udarvis Igolla 7x

Planet 3: SUI7X atmosphere consists of 15% oxygen, which requires the adaptation of respiratory systems to extract enough oxygen for humans. Despite this, breathable oxygen is present. The gravity is double that of Earth, ensuring a heavy feel. SUI7X is characterized by immense oceans covering 70% of its surface, with stunning coral reefs and an abundance of freshwater lakes. Its plant and animal life are predominantly aquatic species, including seaweed forests and an array of marine creatures. However, the planet's frequent tsunamis make it challenging to establish stable settlements.

Planet 5: Shaboodle

Planet 5: Shaboodle possesses a unique atmosphere with 18% oxygen, requiring acclimatization by human inhabitants but still allowing for comfortable breathing. The gravity on Shaboodle is three times stronger than Earth's, making it a physically demanding place. The planet's landscape is characterized by vast swamps, towering cliffs, and dense jungles, offering a diverse range of ecosystems and freshwater sources. Shaboodle is home to incredible flora and fauna, such as giant floating plants and winged creatures. However, powerful and unpredictable windstorms make living on Shaboodle perilous.

Planet 2:  Ficklefoot

Planet 2: Ficklefoot boasts a rich atmosphere composed of 25% oxygen, making it highly breathable. The gravity is twice as strong as Earth's, leading to a heavy environment. The planet features diverse landscapes, including towering mountains and vast deserts with what appears to be spotted with lavendar.  There are pockets of fresh water scattered throughout the mountains which make the waterfalls gorgeous. Various plant and animal species have adapted to its extreme conditions, such as heat-resistant cacti and burrowing creatures. However, the periodic acid rain showers on Ficklefoot make it a hazardous place for long-term habitation.

Poopinon Turdus Maximus

Planet 4: Poopinon has a peculiar atmosphere with 35% oxygen, providing an extra boost of energy for humans. The gravity on Poopinon is half as strong as Earth's, resulting in a lighter environment. This results in refractive rainbows everywhere there is light.  The planet features a rugged landscape with active volcanoes, lava rivers, and extensive underground cave systems. Despite the fiery conditions, fresh water is abundant in Poopinon, offering resources for survival. The plant and animal life have adapted to intense heat, including heat-resistant ferns and fire-breathing lizard-like creatures.  There are also unicorns, lava mermaids and phoenixes.  It has a moon!

Nevertheless, volcanic eruptions pose serious dangers to any settlement on Poopinon.

Once you've selected a planet, make sure you are able to justify your choice!

This is a big task.  You can do it.
