Bird Land

They had been in space a long time. They had examined every planetwithin their trajectory as ordered. There had been six planets in their paththat they examined as possible sites for colonization and a nebula off inthe distance. The nebula was very beautiful, kind of purple and dark blue.But, their orders were not to examine nebulas, but to fi nd a class Mplanet that could be adaptable to humans. This was defi antly a class Mplanet all the readings were perfect. But, with all the experts on boardno one could fi nd the source of the intelligence it took to make theseamazing gardens that circled the planet. Some fairly large birds had beenseen. But, there were no land animals with brains large enough to makethese gardens. They had to be gardens, gardens with uniformed rows ofgrowing crops. There were uniformed rows of trees as well and lines ofshrubs or hedge which divided the garden areas. This planet was placedbetween three suns just right so as to have one side always warm. Thetemperature was around 70 to 80 degrees and at night near 50 degrees.The suns were orbiting in a slightly arched line with this small planet. Theplanet and its two moons orbited around the larger sun. The smaller sunsbeing further away gave little light and a small amount of warmth justenough so the other sides of the planet were not in total darkness at anytime. It had water and oxygen, breathable oxygen that meant no suits orhelmets. This planet was just what they were looking for. It was a smallgreen pearl in the vast darkness of space.
