Good science fiction writers sit down to begin a story with lots of questions. Think of one aspect of space or space travel you would like to know more about, and write down three questions. Next, conduct an Internet search to find your answers. Think: If you were writing a fictional tale of space travel, what details would you add to the facts you’ve discovered? Would you invent new creatures, new technologies, or even a new universe? Use your imagination and create a cartoon advertisement, like the newsprint above, for your own science fiction story. Include three FACTS about space travel within your advertisement.

Reminder: To find factual information, look for reliable sources. (example: .org, .edu, .gov)
