Week 5: Planet Building Assignment

An explanation on my planet created for the planetarium assignment. My planet was based off 3 main focused concepts. Lighting, Life, and Terrain. I asked myself how I wanted to light this planet, choosing that this planet is so far from a light and heat source that its relatively dark. Because it's dark and lacks heat the planet is cold, but not cold enough to frost over. The terrain is dry made of crystals similar to amethysts, little to no water exist here preventing the frost.

Flash photography is prohibited but normal pictures are approved by these gentle yet daunting beings. Finally my turn I am allowed near them, not too close but just enough to frame a well composed photograph. The three massive floating orbs stare right through me blinking in unison, pupils dilating as I walk to the next exhibit. The next room is brighter than the last and I can clearly see the manager of the stage nearby. I wait again watching as those ahead of me are guided into a large cylindrical wire cage running on an automated track. In monotone the woman controlling the ride guides them on how to place the air masks on their face correctly, safety, regulations, and the liability contract signed when you buy tickets to this theme park.
