Solar System Colonization Project 2000

Process - The Real Challenge

We're ready for the real challenge! As with the Great Solar System, you will have roles.

First, you'll work in homogeneous teams (a fancy word for all the same role) as astronomers, meteorologists, geologists, or psychologists/biologists.

Your task will be to study planets from each of these perspectives and to gather, evaluate and present data. Then you will decide on a location for a space colony and create a Power Point Presentation that will:

  1. Describe the location you chose for your colony
  2. Explain your reasons for choosing the location from each role's perspective
  3. Describe adaptations that will need to be made for survival

You may now click on your role to continue with this mission:
