CHAPTER THREE:
THINGS
BIGGER
Speaker:THAN
Speaker:DOGS
Lots
of
Speaker:really
Speaker:big
Speaker:things
Speaker:fit
Speaker:inside
Speaker:The
Speaker:Universe.
Speaker:We
Speaker:will
Speaker:talk
Speaker:about
Speaker:some
Speaker:of
Speaker:them
Speaker:now.
PLANETS &
OTHER
Speaker:LARGE
Speaker:ROUND
Speaker:THINGS
Black
Hole
Black
holes
Speaker:happen
Speaker:when
Speaker:you
Speaker:put
Speaker:too
Speaker:much
Speaker:matter
Speaker:together
Speaker:and
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:not
Speaker:strong
Speaker:enough
Speaker:to
Speaker:hold
Speaker:itself
Speaker:up.
Speaker:Then
Speaker:it
Speaker:breaks
Speaker:and
Speaker:becomes
Speaker:a
Speaker:black
Speaker:hole.
Speaker:You
Speaker:should
Speaker:not
Speaker:put
Speaker:anything
Speaker:in a
Speaker:black
Speaker:hole that
Speaker:you
Speaker:want
Speaker:back,
Speaker:because
Speaker:you
Speaker:cannot
Speaker:get
Speaker:it
Speaker:because
Speaker:of
Speaker:gravity
Speaker:and
Speaker:time.
Planet
Because
they
Speaker:have
Speaker:plenty
Speaker:of
Speaker:gravity,
Speaker:stars
Speaker:usually
Speaker:have
Speaker:things
Speaker:going
Speaker:around
Speaker:them.
Speaker:Rocks
Speaker:and
Speaker:gas
Speaker:and
Speaker:other
Speaker:stars
Speaker:can
Speaker:do
Speaker:this,
Speaker:but
Speaker:the
Speaker:most
Speaker:interesting
Speaker:is
Speaker:planets.
Speaker:Planets
Speaker:are
Speaker:matter
Speaker:that
Speaker:lumps
Speaker:up
Speaker:into
Speaker:a
Speaker:ball.
Speaker:Some
Speaker:of
Speaker:them
Speaker:we
Speaker:can
Speaker:land
Speaker:on
Speaker:and
Speaker:run
Speaker:around
Speaker:on.
Speaker:That
Speaker:is
Speaker:how
Speaker:we
Speaker:explore
Speaker:them
Speaker:and
Speaker:smell
Speaker:for
Speaker:things
Speaker:we
Speaker:should
Speaker:do
Speaker:science
Speaker:to.
Here
are
Speaker:some
Speaker:special
Speaker:types
Speaker:of
Speaker:planets.
•
Garden
Speaker:Gas
Speaker:Giant
Some
planets
Speaker:are
Speaker:gas.
Speaker:We
Speaker:cannot
Speaker:live
Speaker:on
Speaker:them,
Speaker:so sometimes
Speaker:we
Speaker:plant
Speaker:flying
Speaker:trees
Speaker:on
Speaker:them.
Speaker:All
Speaker:the
Speaker:leaves
Speaker:make
Speaker:them
Speaker:green.
Speaker:The
Speaker:trees
Speaker:grow
Speaker:apples
Speaker:and
Speaker:other
Speaker:fruits.
Speaker:If
Speaker:a
Speaker:human
Speaker:drops
Speaker:an
Speaker:apple
Speaker:while
Speaker:picking
Speaker:it
Speaker:and
Speaker:you
Speaker:do
Speaker:not
Speaker:catch
Speaker:it,
Speaker:it
Speaker:falls
Speaker:into
Speaker:the
Speaker:planet
Speaker:core.
Speaker:It
Speaker:squishes
Speaker:into
Speaker:apple sauce
Speaker:because
Speaker:of
Speaker:all
Speaker:the
Speaker:gravity.
Speaker:It
Speaker:is
Speaker:okay,
Speaker:though,
Speaker:because
Speaker:these
Speaker:planets
Speaker:grow
Speaker:lots
Speaker:of
Speaker:apples.
•
Rogue
Speaker:Planet
Sometimes,
a
Speaker:dog
Speaker:loses
Speaker:a
Speaker:ball,
Speaker:but
Speaker:then
Speaker:someday
Speaker:somebody
Speaker:finds
Speaker:it.
Speaker:That
Speaker:happens
Speaker:with
Speaker:planets
Speaker:sometimes.
Speaker:Stars
Speaker:lose
Speaker:them,
Speaker:but
Speaker:then
Speaker:AIs
Speaker:find
Speaker:them
Speaker:and
Speaker:build
Speaker:things
Speaker:on
Speaker:them.
Speaker:Those
Speaker:planets
Speaker:have
Speaker:no
Speaker:sunshine,
Speaker:so
Speaker:they
Speaker:are
Speaker:very
Speaker:cold.
Speaker:The
Speaker:air
Speaker:freezes
Speaker:solid and
Speaker:falls
Speaker:like
Speaker:snow.
Speaker:AIs
Speaker:like
Speaker:these
Speaker:places
Speaker:because
Speaker:computers
Speaker:like
Speaker:the
Speaker:cold.
Speaker:If
Speaker:it
Speaker:ever
Speaker:thaws
Speaker:out,
Speaker:they
Speaker:might
Speaker:bring
Speaker:it
Speaker:to
Speaker:a
Speaker:star
Speaker:again
Speaker:and
Speaker:see
Speaker:what
Speaker:else
Speaker:they
Speaker:can
Speaker:do
Speaker:with
Speaker:it.

Terraforming
Speaker:Planet
The
Earth
Speaker:is
Speaker:nice.
Speaker:It
Speaker:is
Speaker:easy
Speaker:to
Speaker:live
Speaker:on.
Speaker:Most
Speaker:planets
Speaker:are
Speaker:not,
Speaker:so
Speaker:we
Speaker:work
Speaker:on
Speaker:them.
Speaker:This
Speaker:is
Speaker:terraforming.
Speaker:It
Speaker:means
Speaker:dropping
Speaker:comets
Speaker:and
Speaker:seeds
Speaker:and
Speaker:animals
Speaker:on
Speaker:the
Speaker:planet
Speaker:until
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:nice
Speaker:to
Speaker:live
Speaker:on.
Speaker:Sometimes,
Speaker:we
Speaker:have
Speaker:to
Speaker:melt
Speaker:the
Speaker:inside
Speaker:of
Speaker:the
Speaker:planet
Speaker:if
Speaker:it
Speaker:has
Speaker:stopped
Speaker:being
Speaker:a
Speaker:magnet
Speaker:to
Speaker:make
Speaker:it
Speaker:a
Speaker:magnet
Speaker:again.
Speaker:A
Speaker:magnet
Speaker:planet
Speaker:keeps
Speaker:out
Speaker:space
Speaker:energy
Speaker:that
Speaker:could
Speaker:hurt
Speaker:you.
Speaker:We
Speaker:only
Speaker:do
Speaker:terraforming
Speaker:if
Speaker:we
Speaker:are
Speaker:very
Speaker:sure
Speaker:no
Speaker:aliens
Speaker:live
Speaker:on
Speaker:the
Speaker:planet.
Speaker:We
Speaker:want
Speaker:to
Speaker:meet
Speaker:aliens
Speaker:someday
Speaker:and
Speaker:be
Speaker:their
Speaker:friends.
Speaker:Changing
Speaker:their
Speaker:planet
Speaker:could
Speaker:hurt
Speaker:them
Speaker:or
Speaker:maybe
Speaker:just
Speaker:make
Speaker:them
Speaker:sad.
Speaker:The
Speaker:Universe
Speaker:is
Speaker:big,
Speaker:so
Speaker:we
Speaker:can
Speaker:always
Speaker:find
Speaker:more
Speaker:planets
Speaker:without
Speaker:aliens.
Star
If
lots
Speaker:and
Speaker:lots
Speaker:of
Speaker:matter
Speaker:gets
Speaker:together,
Speaker:it
Speaker:will
Speaker:explode
Speaker:and
Speaker:implode
Speaker:at
Speaker:the
Speaker:same
Speaker:time.
Speaker:That
Speaker:is
Speaker:called
Speaker:a
Speaker:star.
Speaker:It
Speaker:is
Speaker:very
Speaker:bright
Speaker:and very
Speaker:hot,
Speaker:but from
Speaker:far
Speaker:away
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:pretty.
Speaker:It
Speaker:also cooks
Speaker:lots
Speaker:of
Speaker:new
Speaker:types
Speaker:of
Speaker:matter
Speaker:if
Speaker:it
Speaker:explodes.
Speaker:That
Speaker:is
Speaker:called
Speaker:a
Speaker:nova.
Speaker:The
Speaker:humans
Speaker:sometimes
Speaker:want
Speaker:to
Speaker:make
Speaker:some
Speaker:stars
Speaker:do
Speaker:novas.
Speaker:The
Speaker:AIs
Speaker:say
Speaker:we
Speaker:should
Speaker:not
Speaker:do
Speaker:novas
Speaker:because
Speaker:novas
Speaker:are
Speaker:messy
Speaker:and
Speaker:we
Speaker:need
Speaker:the
Speaker:stars.
Speaker:We
Speaker:agree
Speaker:with
Speaker:the
Speaker:AIs,
Speaker:especially
Speaker:since
Speaker:the
Speaker:stars
Speaker:look
Speaker:nice
Speaker:in
Speaker:the
Speaker:sky.
PLACES
WE
Speaker:MAKE
Living
on
Speaker:a
Speaker:planet
Speaker:can
Speaker:be
Speaker:nice.
Speaker:Lots
Speaker:of
Speaker:our
Speaker:friends
Speaker:live
Speaker:on
Speaker:planets.
Speaker:Sometimes,
Speaker:though,
Speaker:we
Speaker:want
Speaker:to
Speaker:live
Speaker:by
Speaker:a
Speaker:planet
Speaker:that
Speaker:is
Speaker:not
Speaker:ready
Speaker:for
Speaker:us yet.
Speaker:That
Speaker:is
Speaker:a
Speaker:good
Speaker:time
Speaker:to
Speaker:build
Speaker:a
Speaker:space
Speaker:station.
Speaker:Here
Speaker:are
Speaker:some
Speaker:types
Speaker:of
Speaker:places
Speaker:we
Speaker:live.
Bio-Dome
Some
planets
Speaker:have
Speaker:no
Speaker:air.
Speaker:You
Speaker:can
Speaker:bring
Speaker:some
Speaker:air
Speaker:and
Speaker:keep
Speaker:it
Speaker:in
Speaker:a
Speaker:bubble.
Speaker:Then
Speaker:you
Speaker:can
Speaker:live
Speaker:in
Speaker:a
Speaker:bubble.
Speaker:If
Speaker:you
Speaker:get
Speaker:enough
Speaker:bubbles,
Speaker:you
Speaker:can
Speaker:cover
Speaker:big
Speaker:parts
Speaker:of
Speaker:a
Speaker:planet
Speaker:and
Speaker:maybe
Speaker:turn
Speaker:the
Speaker:bubbles
Speaker:into
Speaker:some
Speaker:bigger
Speaker:bubbles.
Speaker:You
Speaker:cannot
Speaker:land
Speaker:a
Speaker:ship
Speaker:in
Speaker:the
Speaker:bubble,
Speaker:so
Speaker:you
Speaker:have
Speaker:to
Speaker:leave
Speaker:some
Speaker:places
Speaker:for
Speaker:ships.
Speaker:The
Speaker:bubbles
Speaker:have
Speaker:layers
Speaker:to
Speaker:protect
Speaker:you
Speaker:from
Speaker:space
Speaker:dust
Speaker:and
Speaker:particles.
Speaker:If
Speaker:you
Speaker:poke
Speaker:a
Speaker:hole
Speaker:in
Speaker:the
Speaker:bubble,
Speaker:it
Speaker:seals
Speaker:up
Speaker:with
Speaker:a
Speaker:special
Speaker:slime.
Speaker:If
Speaker:the
Speaker:sun
Speaker:is
Speaker:too
Speaker:bright,
Speaker:you
Speaker:can
Speaker:tell
Speaker:the
Speaker:bubble
Speaker:to
Speaker:be
Speaker:shiny
Speaker:outside
Speaker:and
Speaker:then the
Speaker:bubble
Speaker:will
Speaker:be
Speaker:darker
Speaker:inside.
Colony
Some
planets
Speaker:are
Speaker:cozy.
Speaker:They
Speaker:have
Speaker:the
Speaker:right
Speaker:air
Speaker:and
Speaker:heat
Speaker:and
Speaker:things.
Speaker:We
Speaker:put
Speaker:houses
Speaker:on
Speaker:them
Speaker:and
Speaker:live
Speaker:on
Speaker:them.
Speaker:It
Speaker:is
Speaker:nice.
Speaker:When
Speaker:people
Speaker:start
Speaker:to
Speaker:live
Speaker:together
Speaker:on
Speaker:a
Speaker:planet,
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:called
Speaker:a
Speaker:colony.
Speaker:We
Speaker:always
Speaker:check
Speaker:for
Speaker:aliens
Speaker:before
Speaker:we
Speaker:build
Speaker:houses.
Speaker:We
Speaker:want
Speaker:the
Speaker:aliens
Speaker:to
Speaker:like
Speaker:us.
Experimental
Habitat
The
AIs
Speaker:want
Speaker:to
Speaker:be
Speaker:our
Speaker:friends.
Speaker:They
Speaker:are
Speaker:not
Speaker:sure
Speaker:of
Speaker:the
Speaker:best
Speaker:way
Speaker:to
Speaker:do
Speaker:that.
Speaker:Even
Speaker:dogs
Speaker:are
Speaker:not
Speaker:sure.
Speaker:When
Speaker:you
Speaker:can
Speaker:have
Speaker:anything,
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:hard
Speaker:to
Speaker:know
Speaker:what
Speaker:to
Speaker:ask
Speaker:for.
Speaker:So
Speaker:we
Speaker:do
Speaker:science.
Speaker:When
Speaker:the
Speaker:science
Speaker:is
Speaker:about
Speaker:what
Speaker:kind of
Speaker:places we'd like
Speaker:to
Speaker:live in,
Speaker:we
Speaker:can
Speaker:build
Speaker:that
Speaker:place
Speaker:and
Speaker:live
Speaker:there
Speaker:to
Speaker:see.
Speaker:This
Speaker:is
Speaker:called
Speaker:an
Speaker:x-hab.
Speaker:The
Speaker:AIs
Speaker:are
Speaker:making
Speaker:these
Speaker:based
Speaker:on
Speaker:what
Speaker:we
Speaker:say
Speaker:we
Speaker:like
Speaker:best.
Speaker:One
Speaker:of
Speaker:them
Speaker:is
Speaker:a
Speaker:moon
Speaker:where
Speaker:all
Speaker:the
Speaker:matter
Speaker:has
Speaker:nanomachines
Speaker:in
Speaker:it.
Speaker:The
Speaker:ground
Speaker:will
Speaker:bounce
Speaker:you
Speaker:if
Speaker:you
Speaker:fall.
Speaker:If
Speaker:you
Speaker:crash
Speaker:into
Speaker:a
Speaker:rock,
Speaker:it
Speaker:will
Speaker:break
Speaker:up
Speaker:to
Speaker:keep
Speaker:from
Speaker:smashing
Speaker:your
Speaker:vehicle.
Speaker:Even
Speaker:things
Speaker:you
Speaker:bring,
Speaker:like
Speaker:a
Speaker:frying
Speaker:pan,
Speaker:will
Speaker:get
Speaker:nanomachines,
Speaker:so
Speaker:if
Speaker:it
Speaker:fell
Speaker:off
Speaker:a
Speaker:shelf
Speaker:and
Speaker:hit
Speaker:you
Speaker:in
Speaker:the
Speaker:face,
Speaker:it
Speaker:would
Speaker:get
Speaker:a
Speaker:dent
Speaker:in
Speaker:the
Speaker:shape
Speaker:of
Speaker:your
Speaker:face
Speaker:instead
Speaker:of
Speaker:hurting
Speaker:you.
Speaker:Even
Speaker:the
Speaker:water
Speaker:has
Speaker:special
Speaker:nanomachines
Speaker:to
Speaker:let
Speaker:you
Speaker:breathe
Speaker:it.
Speaker:Special
Speaker:AIs
Speaker:with
Speaker:bodies
Speaker:live
Speaker:there
Speaker:and
Speaker:are
Speaker:designed to
Speaker:not
Speaker:be
Speaker:scary.
Speaker:They
Speaker:have
Speaker:big
Speaker:eyes
Speaker:and
Speaker:nice
Speaker:smells
Speaker:and
Speaker:soft
Speaker:bodies
Speaker:and
Speaker:no
Speaker:sharp
Speaker:edges.
Speaker:These
Speaker:AIs
Speaker:act
Speaker:more
Speaker:like
Speaker:humans
Speaker:and
Speaker:will
Speaker:treat
Speaker:you
Speaker:like
Speaker:a
Speaker:visiting
Speaker:friend
Speaker:they
Speaker:really
Speaker:like,
Speaker:mostly
Speaker:with
Speaker:food
Speaker:but
Speaker:also
Speaker:with
Speaker:adventures.
Speaker:The
Speaker:humans
Speaker:call
Speaker:this
Speaker:x-hab
Speaker:a "toon
Speaker:moon"
Speaker:because
Speaker:visiting
Speaker:there
Speaker:reminds
Speaker:them
Speaker:of
Speaker:cartoons.
O'Neill
Cylinder
Space is
floaty.
Speaker:Planets
Speaker:only
Speaker:have
Speaker:an
Speaker:up
Speaker:and a
Speaker:down
Speaker:because
Speaker:of
Speaker:gravity.
Speaker:Planets
Speaker:are
Speaker:made
Speaker:of
Speaker:lots
Speaker:of
Speaker:matter,
Speaker:though,
Speaker:so
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:easier
Speaker:to
Speaker:build
Speaker:a
Speaker:space
Speaker:station.
Speaker:If
Speaker:you
Speaker:want
Speaker:to
Speaker:make
Speaker:an
Speaker:up
Speaker:and a
Speaker:down
Speaker:for
Speaker:your
Speaker:space
Speaker:station,
Speaker:one
Speaker:way
Speaker:is
Speaker:to
Speaker:build
Speaker:it
Speaker:as
Speaker:a
Speaker:big
Speaker:tube.
Speaker:The
Speaker:tube
Speaker:spins
Speaker:pretty
Speaker:fast,
Speaker:so
Speaker:you
Speaker:get
Speaker:pressed
Speaker:to
Speaker:the
Speaker:tube
Speaker:like
Speaker:in
Speaker:a
Speaker:centrifuge.
Speaker:You
Speaker:can
Speaker:walk
Speaker:around
Speaker:in
Speaker:the
Speaker:tube.
Speaker:The
Speaker:middle
Speaker:of
Speaker:the
Speaker:tube
Speaker:has
Speaker:an
Speaker:elevator
Speaker:shaft
Speaker:and
Speaker:no
Speaker:gravity,
Speaker:since
Speaker:it
Speaker:has
Speaker:too
Speaker:much
Speaker:up
Speaker:and
Speaker:no
Speaker:down.
Speaker:If
Speaker:you
Speaker:throw
Speaker:something
Speaker:too
Speaker:hard,
Speaker:especially
Speaker:if
Speaker:the
Speaker:something
Speaker:is
Speaker:sticky,
Speaker:it
Speaker:can
Speaker:hit
Speaker:the
Speaker:elevator
Speaker:shaft
Speaker:and
Speaker:get
Speaker:stuck.
Speaker:Then
Speaker:you
Speaker:have
Speaker:to
Speaker:go
Speaker:up
Speaker:with
Speaker:a
Speaker:jetpack
Speaker:and
Speaker:sometimes
Speaker:a
Speaker:mop
Speaker:to
Speaker:get
Speaker:it
Speaker:and
Speaker:clean
Speaker:up
Speaker:whatever
Speaker:made
Speaker:it
Speaker:sticky.
When
a
Speaker:place
Speaker:like
Speaker:this
Speaker:is
Speaker:a
Speaker:ball
Speaker:instead
Speaker:of
Speaker:a
Speaker:tube,
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:called
Speaker:a
Speaker:Bernal
Speaker:sphere.
Speaker:No
Speaker:matter
Speaker:the
Speaker:shape
Speaker:of
Speaker:your
Speaker:spinning
Speaker:station,
Speaker:it
Speaker:wants
Speaker:to
Speaker:wobble
Speaker:like
Speaker:a
Speaker:top.
Speaker:You
Speaker:can
Speaker:fix
Speaker:this
Speaker:by
Speaker:putting
Speaker:another
Speaker:space
Speaker:station
Speaker:on
Speaker:the
Speaker:end
Speaker:and
Speaker:having
Speaker:it
Speaker:spin
Speaker:the
Speaker:other
Speaker:way.
Speaker:Then
Speaker:you
Speaker:can
Speaker:have
Speaker:more
Speaker:neighbors.
Rotating-Wheel
Space
Speaker:Station
Another
way
Speaker:to
Speaker:make
Speaker:some
Speaker:up
Speaker:and
Speaker:down
Speaker:is
Speaker:to
Speaker:build
Speaker:your
Speaker:station
Speaker:as
Speaker:a
Speaker:donut
Speaker:city.
Speaker:Like
Speaker:a
Speaker:real
Speaker:donut,
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:a
Speaker:ring
Speaker:with
Speaker:mostly
Speaker:air
Speaker:inside.
Speaker:Unlike
Speaker:a
Speaker:real
Speaker:donut,
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:big
Speaker:and
Speaker:spins.
Speaker:The
Speaker:humans
Speaker:have
Speaker:lots
Speaker:of
Speaker:names
Speaker:for
Speaker:special
Speaker:types
Speaker:of
Speaker:these,
Speaker:like "von
Speaker:Braun
Speaker:wheel"
Speaker:and "Stanford
Speaker:torus,"
Speaker:but
Speaker:all
Speaker:the
Speaker:types
Speaker:are
Speaker:donuts.
Speaker:You
Speaker:can
Speaker:even
Speaker:stack
Speaker:the
Speaker:donuts.
Speaker:Sky
Speaker:mirrors
Speaker:keep
Speaker:the
Speaker:donuts
Speaker:warm
Speaker:with
Speaker:sunshine.
Space
Elevator
An
elevator
Speaker:is
Speaker:a
Speaker:box
Speaker:you
Speaker:stand
Speaker:in
Speaker:that
Speaker:takes
Speaker:you
Speaker:up
Speaker:or
Speaker:down
Speaker:on
Speaker:a
Speaker:rope.
Speaker:A
Speaker:space
Speaker:elevator
Speaker:is
Speaker:very
Speaker:tall
Speaker:and
Speaker:takes
Speaker:you
Speaker:to
Speaker:space.
Speaker:You
Speaker:can
Speaker:look
Speaker:out
Speaker:the
Speaker:window
Speaker:while
Speaker:you
Speaker:ride
Speaker:it
Speaker:and
Speaker:see
Speaker:the
Speaker:planet
Speaker:and
Speaker:ships
Speaker:and
Speaker:things.
Speaker:It
Speaker:only
Speaker:takes
Speaker:you
Speaker:two
Speaker:places,
Speaker:though.
Speaker:The
Speaker:rope
Speaker:is
Speaker:very
Speaker:long
Speaker:and
Speaker:the
Speaker:top
Speaker:stays
Speaker:in
Speaker:space
Speaker:because
Speaker:it
Speaker:is
Speaker:swinging,
Speaker:like
Speaker:a
Speaker:ball
Speaker:on
Speaker:a
Speaker:rope
Speaker:you
Speaker:swing
Speaker:with
Speaker:your
Speaker:mouth.
Speaker:The
Speaker:bottom
Speaker:is
Speaker:stuck
Speaker:in
Speaker:the
Speaker:ground.
Speaker:You
Speaker:need
Speaker:a
Speaker:strong
Speaker:rope
Speaker:that
Speaker:will
Speaker:wiggle
Speaker:out
Speaker:of
Speaker:the
Speaker:way
Speaker:of
Speaker:ships
Speaker:and
Speaker:space
Speaker:rocks.
Speaker:If
Speaker:the
Speaker:rope
Speaker:breaks,
Speaker:it
Speaker:will
Speaker:spool
Speaker:up
Speaker:inside
Speaker:the
Speaker:ground
Speaker:so
Speaker:it
Speaker:does
Speaker:not
Speaker:hurt
Speaker:someone.
Speaker:Then
Speaker:the
Speaker:box
Speaker:will
Speaker:use
Speaker:little
Speaker:jets to land.
Sky Sweeper
The AIs have little ships that fire lasers at paint chips and other small things in orbit. Then those things fall into the atmosphere and burn up. That keeps them from hitting you. They emit light and look pretty in the sky. You can make a reservation to have them fall during the night time, so you can sit on the grass and watch them with your friends on the planet.
MEGASTRUCTURES
The
AIs
Speaker:work
Speaker:very
Speaker:hard.
Speaker:They
Speaker:build
Speaker:all
Speaker:kinds
Speaker:of
Speaker:stations.
Speaker:Some
Speaker:are
Speaker:bigger
Speaker:than
Speaker:stars.
Black
Hole
Speaker:Unspooler
The
Universe
Speaker:has
Speaker:lots
Speaker:of
Speaker:things,
Speaker:but
Speaker:some
Speaker:things
Speaker:fell
Speaker:in
Speaker:black
Speaker:holes.
Speaker:The
Speaker:AIs
Speaker:are
Speaker:trying
Speaker:to
Speaker:take
Speaker:apart
Speaker:black
Speaker:holes
Speaker:and
Speaker:use
Speaker:the
Speaker:stuff
Speaker:inside.
Speaker:They
Speaker:could
Speaker:get
Speaker:all
Speaker:kinds
Speaker:of
Speaker:matter,
Speaker:if
Speaker:you
Speaker:ever
Speaker:need
Speaker:more
Speaker:matter.
Speaker:Also,
Speaker:black
Speaker:holes
Speaker:do
Speaker:not
Speaker:have
Speaker:very
Speaker:much
Speaker:time
Speaker:inside them,
Speaker:so
