What Have I Been Up To?

Well…where do I begin. I have been on a long adventure learning about Mars. Yep…Mars. I have met up with a young family who will someday shortly be living on Mars. I had a talk with Emma, who is 12 years old, and her brother Liam, who is a year older, about what their thoughts were about living on Mars. They explained to me that it will take a year of schooling and physical preparations before they begin their long journey. I asked them what kind of studies will they be taking? Emma explained to me some of the classes were about how to survive on such a harsh planet. How to prepare for any kind of disaster and what to do if they met up with any possible aliens. WHAT! I yelled. You heard right. Possible aliens. Oops, gotta go right now, Emma is taking me to one of her classes. See ya.
