Living on the Moon
This article was required by the project. Students were
required to research topics related to living and working on the moon.
Our whole team did the research and we
found
many articles on the Internet. The photo on this article came from
Space.com.

Moon Wars
The project required an original story based in science. We learned
about Helium-3 and the commercial interest in the moon. We also discovered
that there is quite a bit of controversy over ownership of the moon.
We anticipate future political ramifications. This
article presents
these ideas.

Clothing in Space
This article is on our Style page
and is about new space suit technology. We imagined that someday, spacesuits
might be more
than practical...
they might make a lunar fashion statement. We thought the bio-suit
pictures looked like Power Rangers, so we got "fashion" photos
from RangerCentral.com
