Heart pounding, I was powerless as I watched the fleet fly right into an asteroid field. Asteroids aren't much of a problem if you know where they are, but if they take you by surprise without your shields raised, they can do a lot of damage. One ship went down, all hands lost. I jolted awake, covered in a cold sweat. Would the horror of that fatal mistake on my map always haunt me? Maybe that's why I got the border planets. Not because it was a great honor, but that the general wanted me out of his hair. Sighing, I slowly opened my eyes in the freezing cold chryo chamber, as Sim, my safety bot, started beeping up a storm. At first, I didn't think much of it, he always beeps like crazy when I wake up. But, as I gazed out of the frost covered

  • ASTEROIDS

    Sixty-Five million years ago, 70 percent of life on Earth died. The most reasonable and possible reason this happened was an asteroid. An asteroid hit the Earth very hard, and in doing this, dirt and dust from the impact stayed in the air and it blocked out sunlight, that’s why the dinosaurs died. An asteroid is a rock from outer space. Asteroids have orbited the Sun along with the planets since the solar system formed about 4.6 billion years ago, but it’s only been 200 years since we first discovered them. Meteorites are small pieces of asteroids broken off on impact with other asteroids. Most meteorites are rusty brown on the outside, have rounded edges from melting as they go through Earth’s atmosphere, and contain iron. There are 3 different types of meteorites: stony, metallic, and stony metallic.92 percents of all asteroids are stone, 6 percent are made of iron and nickel, and the rest are a combination. Some meteorites also contain gold, copper, platinum, and carbon.

    Asteroids have been around for centuries but scientists have been trying to conduct a machine that will capture the asteroid to protect and mine the material. I think we should fund asteroid studies because we can protect the earth, collect resources, and find new technology. When we capture the asteroid then we can find many different things in the asteroid and probably outside it too. If we fund asteroid studies to protect the earth we can create a device or machine that will collect or destroy asteroids. The main reason scientists need to capture asteroids is to protect the earth from asteroids that may survive the burning sensation of the atmosphere.
