Bird Land

<p>They had been in space a long time. They had examined every planet<br />within their trajectory as ordered. There had been six planets in their path<br />that they examined as possible sites for colonization and a nebula off in<br />the distance. The nebula was very beautiful kind of purple and dark blue.<br />But their orders were not to examine nebulas but to fi nd a class “M”<br />planet that could be adaptable to humans. This was defi antly a class “M”<br />planet all the readings were perfect. But with all the experts on board<br />no one could fi nd the source of the intelligence it took to make these<br />amazing gardens that circled the planet. Some fairly large birds had been<br />seen. But there were no land animals with brains large enough to make<br />these gardens. They had to be gardens gardens with uniformed rows of<br />growing crops. There were uniformed rows of trees as well and lines of<br />shrubs or hedge which divided the garden areas. This planet was placed<br />between three suns just right so as to have one side always warm. The<br />temperature was around 70 to 80 degrees and at night near 50 degrees.<br />The suns were orbiting in a slightly arched line with this small planet. The<br />planet and it’s two moons orbited around the larger sun. The smaller suns<br />being further away gave little light and a small amount of warmth just<br />enough so the other sides of the planet were not in total darkness at any<br />time. It had water and oxygen breathable oxygen that meant no suits or<br />helmets. This planet was just what they were looking for. It was a small<br />green pearl in the vast darkness of space.</p>
