Martin Luther King

By: Arjun Agrawal Martin Luther King was an American civil rights leader fighting for colored people, so they can have equal civil rights.

What was right then was to end segregation between people.  Today, in the U.S., all humans are now equal.   Today, right has a new meaning.

It took us 23 days to reach Mars. Life can only survive where there is water. There was frozen water in the polar ice caps of Mars. This was where we decided to land. The landing was very tough and it felt like the ship was going to break apart. We luckily stopped at an edge of a canyon that had been the bed of an ancient lake. What do you do when first get there We needed air, water, food and shelter to survive. We had brought food that would last us two months but we only had 5 days of supply of air and water. We desperately needed supply of oxygen and water. So we dug in the canyon and, to our relief, we found ice. We brought solar heater that would use t
