Solar System

Trading Cards


 

Introduction

Why should ball players get all the great collectables? Let's let the planets have their day in the sun. (GET IT?!) Crummy bubble gum completely optional!


 

Process

Hit the internet and see what you can find out about these planets that deserve every bit of fanaticism and worship that overpriced baseball, basketball and football players get. You should use the information you collect to put together your collectable trading card. Include stats, history, satellites and whether or not it's been visited by manmade objects. Put your card together using your choice of software programs like MS Publisher, Powerpoint or other program.
