Planetary Project


In our planetary project, we each designed our own planet orbiting around a real star. We calculated all of the mathematical data, so that if we placed our planet around our star, it would orbit using the specifications that we found in our calculations. We also composed two visuals. One visual was the view of our planet from outer space. Our other visual was a view from the perspective of being on the surface.  We also wrote a descriptive piece in which we vividly described our planet, such as the life on our planet as well as the atmosphere, climate, terrain, etc. All in all, this was a fun project that incorporated math skills, physic skills, writing skills, and most importantly, our creative minds.
