"So we are exploring another planet?" C.G asked her father/ "Yes, our scientists have determined that if none of the environments you currently have explored are suitable, then perhaps we should find sanctuary in the stars." Her father asked. "Very well father, where is this planet?" C.G asked.
"This planet is located roughly 6 light years from earth, and is the fourth planet in a binary solar system." C.G's father responded. "I would like information on the planets geography, climate, flora, fauna, and its suitability for human colonization."
"Understood, we shall leave immediatley." C.G declared, and the time tele-communicator shut off. "Um C.G can't we just stay here? Who knows whats out there?" Luis said nervously. "Man up Luis, Squibby is braver then you." Ethan stated. "Yeah Luis, think of all the cute new animals we'll meet." Emily added.
"How do you know we won't be skewered five seconds out of the ship? In every environment we've visited, there's something that has sharp teeth, or claws, or poison spit. There's falconflies in the Antarctic forest, Snowstalkers in the North European Ice, or Megasquid in the Northern Forest."
"Luis, your fears are most likely unfounded, scientific evidence points that any life we may encounter is likely microbial." C.G told the nerd. Luis looked at his commander, trying to think of something to say, but decided against it.
"We are approaching the coordinates, we shall be there momentarily." C.G announced, the Time Flyer entered orbit over the planet they presumed they'd explore. "Looks more like a dustball then earth." Ethan commented. He was right. Unlike Earth, there was no water, except for a small blue sea. Most of the planet seemed open plains, with mountain ranges near the equator and polar icecaps. "We shall begin our descent, prepare for landing." C.G announced. The time flyer began its descent to the surface.
A/N: What do you think so far? I got this idea a while back, and decided to write a story about it. Cookies to whoever can guess the planet.
