COLONY PROJECT

You and a group of followers must leave the country. You will probably not return. Your job is to survive and create a safe, functional, living place. This place may be in space, underwater, or inside an asteroid's crust. You are in charge of supplies and equipment, which will support you until your colony, becomes self-sustaining.

Explanation of the colony is to be in the form of a written report, as well as an oral/visual presentation. As a preliminary planning guide, list the parts of the project for which each group member is responsible; your grade is assigned on an individual basis. Be prepared to turn this list in before the class presentation.
