In 2100, will we be living and working on other
planets?
|
|
If so, what will our new city look
like? Our houses? Our schools? Our malls? Our
buildings? |
|
|
How do we travel from one part
of the city to another? Will we have roads and
highways? What kind of transportation will be using?
How do we get to the planet and back to Earth? |
|
|
What kind of plants and animals could we find
in this new environment? How do we grow our favourite Earth Foods? Where and how do we get
water? |
|
|
What kinds of things will we be
doing? What kinds of jobs will we have? What new
sports could we be playing? What would the arenas be
like? |
