VOTE to See who Goes to an Alien World...

Was Jamestown any less Alien to Europeans...

...than Mars will be in 2023?
Hello Dreams 2 Mars Classrooms:

Humans on Mars? Sounds crazy, right? There was a time when the prospects for life in North America seemed just as crazy! My class compared 17th c. settlement in N. America to the plans to settle Mars in 2023. We used the same criteria that Mars One has used to select their applicants.

Students made a (90) Second Video to promote themselves to be selected. 



We ask that you take the time to VOTE for the (2) Settlers that will be best suited for this Adventure... Leave a comment and tell us which one landscape will be more "alien," the 17th C. North America or Mars?
