instantly is that there is two moons. Also I notice that the day is a little bit longer than on Earth. Also the sun looks pretty far away too. And the planet is overall smaller. It is also very broad and plain. I see brownish terrain and brown rocks. The landform is very rough, including sandy dunes, to giant boulders. One thing I will need to bring is a space suit because of the atmosphere in Mars. I will need to bring really hot clothes and a ton of blankets. Since the gravity is different…

In 1849 lots of settlers were traveling long distances over mountains, hills forests, rivers, deserts, and more. The…

to the Angel falls and dozens of tall rock mesas called tepuis, which rise dramatically out of the surrounding flat lands. Along with this comes a plentiful supply of biological resources in the forests that cover the land. Not only is it home to landforms but also the indigenous people, Pemon, that have lived off the land traditionally for 200 to 300 years, mainly relying upon swidden agriculture that has sufficed them for years. Although, this practice is no longer functioning to the same…

The mountains and the seas were the landforms of Greece that played a significant role in why Greece became such a power house.

The landmass is called Dodge Ridge, and it has a ski resort on it. Beyond the resort the ridgeline continues to rise, gradually, and three miles later it crosses an administrative boundary line. The ridge, which divides the Stanislaus River from the Tuolumne River, continues inside the Emigrant Wilderness Area. The…
