Spaceship Neptune

He is...

ice horror land,
one of the sharks circling its prey;

an endless hurricane,
rolling through the Pacific;

iceberg,
floating through the sea of darkness;

tornado,
running through an endless field;

windy Antarctic,
unable to bear.

How the L.S.O.P.P WORKS.

Can we survive on all the other pitiful planets?
Think NO, well now you can with the L.S.O.P.P spacesuit advanced. The LSOPP stands for life saver on poisonous planets. This is a fully functional space suit, it gives you all the life support you want.
The LSOPP space suit runs on heartbeats from a human, so no need to keep buying AAA batteries ALL THE TIME.
Our new space suit doesn't just have one pair of shoes. Actually it has all the pairs of shoes you can get put only into one pair of shoes called surface shoes. The spacesuit also has an Alien translator which turns their language into your language; we installed this feature just in case you bump into an alien on the way. We have also installed something called O.U.P.S [our universal positioning system] which works exactly like a G.P.S.
Now let's get into the more technical stuff.
You know how it can get really hot in a space suit. Well that will never happen in the LSOPP advanced since it's got a cooling & heating system which will change your body temperature into a nice relaxing feeling. Well every spacesuit should have this….. A radio transmitter, this one though can call all the way around the universe. This is the extra fun zone you're going to read.
The LSOPP has some awesome grapple hooks for staying on the planet you're on or for getting small heavy souvenir. This spacesuit also has a built in jet pack for flying over high mountains or volcanoes. The LSOPP spacesuit has a flat screen TV. Just in case your fav movie is on this particular hour. If you don't want to watch TV we installed a SB [silly bob] which is like a little elf that will make you laugh out loud.
These are the things you'd strictly need. An oxygen tank fuelled to max for your breathing purpose, a hydration box for perfect hydration. This is something quite fancy a food tasting air compressor which makes the air taste like your favourite meal.
The LSOPP can also blow up any unexpected guests. The LSOPP stands for life saver on poisonous planets.

THE L.S.S

INTRO
The L.S.S (Lunar Solar Suit) is a spacesuit for people who are a bit random and like to have heaps of fun (and do no work!!). It is very stylish and comes in four types – girly girl-Sam boys-boys-and tom girls. It has an air producer that makes air from carbon dioxide so you can never run out. It works on solar and lunar sources.

HOW IT WORKS!!
The L.S.S is used for planet explorations to see if there could possibly be life & also for fun trips to all planets.

It has a built in air conditioner made for all temperatures. So that all planets can be explored from Mercury to Pluto.

The L.S.S has a connected Nintendo DSi to its fashionable arm. The Nintendo holds 1 R4 card with 25 games. Some of them are Mario carts, Kirby, Final Fantasy and Pokémon Pearl and Diamond.

My space suit also comes with a UPS (universal positioning system) that also works on solar and lunar sources.

So you don't miss your friends and family I have included a special camera that can `connect' to your family's computer, so that you can talk to them through it. It comes up on your mask.

Because you might be staying there for a while I have included a free inflatable mansion pack. Inside the inflatable home you get 2 million gallons of water, 3 gigantic boxes of dehydrated food and all the robot dragons you want.

 
And the LSS comes with special robots that do the (boring) every day space chores. 1 robot specially made for collecting space dust and rocks. Another is made for drilling beneath the surface. These robots do all the work so you can just explore and have fun.

 
CONCLUSION!!
The L.S.S is a fun space suit made for all humans that are all sizes. Its features are made to suit all kinds of personalities.

How the S.S.S.S. Works

Diagram by Junathan

The S.S.S.S. is a high quality computer/ G.P.S. system. It is used to search for life and poisons in space. The S.S.S.S. is equipped with air vents to cool and warm the body in hot and cold conditions.

Well, the S.S.S.S. has installed jetpack, snack-system and movie theatre included. For protection the S.S.S.S. has a secret button to release your own little body guard Yoda from Star- wars. Also connected to the jetpack, is a switch on the bottom of one the jets that turns the jet pack into a hovering lazy boy entertainment chair for your movie theater system too. Oh I nearly forgot to say that the lazy boy has a force field. The force field is to protect you from space monsters.

The S.S.S.S. is for highly qualified astronauts so kids, don't try this at home.

Shuttle Venus

She is … first bright star 
Earth's twin evil sister in the sapphire sky.

A golden coin,

Spinning through the black well

Cotton candy,

Spun to entertain to prove she's better than Earth.

Hottest planet,

Simply a golden star like a Hollywood one on the path.

A goddess of love and beauty, she is bright in twilight skies

Never wear her out.

Roman version of Greek god Hermes.

Bright Red sitting next to the sun.

Green Screening

I went to a workshop this afternoon where I learnt how to use green screening. That means taking a photo in front of a screen and then moving the main object in the photo on to another background image.

This picture is my first attempt. I used Picnik to add a speech bubble and effects to the photo.
