As we are coming to the end of our science topic of Space, we imagined what it would be like if we had to leave our home planet of Earth. We pretended to be on a mission to the moon to live and had to make lots of hard decisions in the meantime. We created our own lunar colonies which detailed a food source, water source, lodgings, heating and ways to deal with the the little amount of gravity on the moon. We quickly realised that solar power would be the best way to power most things and also talked about greenhouses to grow food. We found it interesting to imagine how our lives would transfer to a habitat like the moon. Here are some pictures of our lunar colonies!<\/p>\n
