Dear Mr. President,

We are going to build a transportation system on Artrix. As you know, our scientists said there were many different forms of land on Artrix. They said that there were mountains, plains, flat lands, valleys, rivers, peninsulas and plateaus. According to our scientists, the sun on Artrix is strong enough for solar power. The solar panels are for solar energy. We decided to have solar energy because it is more powerful and it doesn't harm the environment. We also decided most of our creations are going to be made out of steel. On Artrix there is no steel so we are going to make steel out of iron. Steel is essentially iron that has been refined so it contains less than 1.7 percent carbon. We got this information from Groiler.com.  We are planning to build carriages run by horses. For the carriages we are planning to build stone roads because it will not hurt the horses. Our scientists said there were horses on Artrix. We are going to make the carriage out of wood because our scientists said there were trees in the ground of Artrix.

We are going to build a wind and solar powered car for a faster and more power full transportation. For the car we are going to build flat sand roads because the car can easily ride on that kind of road. Our cars are going to be made out of steel. Our scientist said there was sand on Artrix. Our car is going to be environmentally friendly.

For our transportation on water we are going to build a boat. Our boat will run on solar energy. We will have solar panels on top of the boat because that way the boat will be able to charge and use solar energy while the boat is on the water. Our boat will also have sails just in case there is no wind. Our boat is going to be made out of steel and wood. Our boat will not harm the environment.

Last we are going to make a plane. Our plane is going to work on solar energy. The solar panels are going to be on the top of the disk because that way you can get stronger solar energy. Our plane is going to be like the planes they made a long time ago. Our plane is going to be made out of pine wood and canvas. Our scientist said there were trees on Artrix. Our plane is going to be environmentally friendly.

We are going to make all our creations friendly to the environment. This is how we plan to build transportation on Artrix.

Thank you for listening.

Sincerely, The Transporters Natalia, Joshua, Amar, and Nick

Dear President Mullins,

We are DreamExtreme classroom Transportation Group. As you know there is an asteroid about to hit Earth. Luckily space experts have found a planet that can hold life called Artrix. We have been chosen to make transportation happen on Artrix. We talked to our group of scientists to learn as much about Artrix as we can.

When we get to Artrix here is what we will do. We will have different stages in our plan so we can have transportation right away and then have more advanced transportation down the road. In stage one all we will have is horses, oxens and other animals that are strong enough to pull and hold a wagon. We are planing to make wagons to carry people and our things. Our plan is to make them out of wood because our scientists told us it is easy to find and use on Artrix. The roads in stage one will be dirt and still pretty rough.Also in stage one we will create boats out of wood and sails from animal skins or cloth. These will help us travel on rivers, lakes, and oceans that are on Artrix. The boats will be how we get from our western side of Artrix to the South Paris group on the eastern side of Artrix. In stage two on Planet Artrix we will start to build solar powered cars and battery powered cars with the metal ore we dig out of the ground. We will start to build routes that will lead to underground to the subways. Some will lead to buildings,schools and forests. The roads will be out of crushed rocks and sand. In stage three when all the roads are built we will be able to get from our side to the other side with the solar,batteried powered planes and sailing boats. Sailing is a hard process. You have to make sure you have all the right cords to make it turn. We have to make the sail so its able to cross oceans. In stage five we will use ski's to get around in the winter when it snows.The ski's are made out of wood and/or metal ore we dug up in the mines that we will start when we get to Artrix. In stage six we will make mini things like bikes or scooters once we start living like a city. In stage seven when we have all of our things done it will be time to ride the vehicles so we will have to build the street signs so it will make it easier for us to get around. After all we have done in all those stages we will finally live like we were living back on earth. Then when the vehicles are ready to ride we will make sure that the vehicles have no problems so we will be transported safely.

Thank you, The Transportion Group Solomon, Tristan, Gage, Courtney, and Selene
