Would you rather go to a different planet to live and try something new or stay here on Earth? Because Mars One is sending people on a one way trip to Mars to live and start building a civilization for the other people here on Earth. So would you go live on Mars for the rest of your desirable life or stay here and keep living the life you already are? So reason 1 why you should go to mars with Mars One is because you still get t.v, internet, a cell phone, and everything else but it’s a new…

The Wet had awoken me again. Much like the patients of the hospice ward, it too had taken permanent residency amongst us feeble, withering souls. Its humid and ungodly presence magnified the discomfort I felt laying between the crisp, sterile sheets of the hospital bed. My senses were only exposed to the incessant beeping of heart monitors, the irritating glare and buzz of the fluorescent lights and the wretched stench of the Wet. But a soft glare from the moon that bathed the room with light…

Today began at The Evergreen State College parking lot at 8:43 a.m. where I met the rest of the class in front of the vans. At this time, the weather was extremely cloudy/foggy and 55 F. As I looked around the parking lot, I noted some spring flowers (I believe to be camas) beginning to bloom, clover, dandelions and numerous buds chirping. We left campus by 9:05 a.m. and from there we headed towards the Seattle History Museum with the goal of learning more about the Pacific Northwest’s history…

EN 281 Setting and characterization It was about 6 a.m. Saturday morning and it is an extremely beautiful morning; one of the mornings that makes you stop and realize just how amazing it is at that particular moment in the world. Everything from how nice the summer breeze felt on a freshly shaved face, how the cool water felt as it ran between the toes and bottom of your foot, the smell of fresh cut grass in air, the sounds, or lack of sound, that summer brings in when it is perfect outside. It…

dancing for me. They were swaying perfectly with the beat of the rope hitting the flagpole. The leaves joined in on the trees dance by falling off and landing gracefully onto the ground. They laid there, probably waiting for the heat of the sun to hit them. The sun was high in the sky, radiating heat to where I could feel it in the shady spot I was sitting in. Yet, the heat was the relaxing kind causing me not to be miserable. Soon, I begin to close my eyes and listen. The whooshing of cars on…

South America. The mask that I picked is the Inca Sun God Mask, another name to call the mask is Inti. It is used during ceremonies, to worship the sun. I picked this mask because it caught my attention by its shiny gold. The mask is very irregular by the shape of its face. Also, The history of the Inca Tribe is very interesting because the Incans had the best empire and army. The Sun God is on the flag of Peru, Uruguay, and Argentina. The Inca Sun God Mask was used for ceremonies, from…

A couple of us gathered around the calendar in disbelief, as if to check and see if today was really the 13th. Of course this was only a guess for no one in our silo had ever seen the sun. The dreaded date had finally arrived, just as the soothsayers had predicted. Our nonperishable food supply had finally diminished. Now everyone was faced with the same grim ultimatum. Either slowly starve to death in our subterranean home, or venture beyond the blast doors into the wasteland. Almost…

I was next to the water. The smell of the pine trees were in the air. A slight mist was on the water and hanging around me. It was beautiful, fireflies danced, and crickets chirped a tune through the trees in the distance. The lonely cabin looked so beautiful and ancient. And there she stood. Once again the magnificent creature who stood nearly seven feet tall was before me. The build of a horse the wings of a dragon, eyes black as night and instead of a mane there were spines with soft silk…

Our vacation to Mackinac Island started out normal, but the rest of the trip… not so much. My brother and I were having a nice picnic by arch rock, eating grilled cheese sandwiches, when I noticed a strange shimmer in the unique formation. “Does Arch Rock look like it’s shimmering to you?” I asked my brother, wondering if I was hallucinating. He glanced over at the formation and a look of curiosity quickly spread across his face, answering my question. “Yeah, it does,” he replied as he set…

almost entirely of ice water. Observations made by the Galileo spacecraft show that Europa has a metallic core and a rocky mantle (The Galilean). Europa may have an ocean with more then twice as much water as the Earth does. Europa’s distance from the sun has meant that the water has frozen over, giving it the smoothest surface of any object in the Solar System. Covering the icy surface are dark markings, which are also described as cracks. With an ocean believed to lie beneath the icy surface,…
