Speculative Fiction Mind Map Assignment

SCI FI STORY: A group of scientists are abandoned on a random planet that quickly dragging them down with the tons of quicksand in the area. They only have a few things with them, but they create a machine that can extract the power from the two suns to create a way back home. They look in the sky and see thousands of other planets showing that Earth isn't alone.

"NASA scientists think distant worlds could be even stranger than fiction"

Earth isn't the only planet that has lfie

“We need Earth climate science to help us understand planetary habitability and the potential diversity of life on exoplanets,”
"But NASA exoplanet scientists think we have a fighting chance of finding life beyond our solar system."
Building super crazy computers/telescopes that can automate the process of finding different planets that specifically have living cells on it.

Ice and desert planets

"But life may evolve under the ice of a different world, or a moon in our solar system. On Earth, it’s been found inside volcanoes, deep ocean trenches, even the frozen soil of Antarctica."
Trapped on Jupiter's moon, you find life that proves that Earth isn't alone and that these ice creatures are the only way you can make it home.

Being on a planet filled with sand everywhere is a challenge because it's going to be quicksand.

Each sunset would be unique, because the stars are always changing their configuration. Building a sundial would require calculus.
Extracting double the power from two suns can cause a huge increase in powering machines that can help us expand our knowledge of the universe. Or maybe these two suns don't have normal solar energy, yet something more powerful that causes humans to have superpowers.
"A person on Kepler-16b would have two shadows. In a storm, two rainbows would appear"
