My Home Design of the Future
By: Briana Pierucci
Location of my Home
I will be living in the grassland biome that is home to many different species of plants and animals. To create a green environment around me I will not disrupt anything that is around me by not removing anything nor releasing any toxins, or harmful materials. Around my home will be plants like the Big Blue Stem, Blue Grass, and Buffalo Grass with Fleabane, Indian Grass, Purple Cone Flower, Milkweed and sunflowers.
Plants, Fertilizers and Pesticides.
I will also use organic pesticides and organic fertilizers. I will avoid chemical fertilizers because they can affect the life around the plants and could affect them.

Technology
Two technologies that were invented through space exploration were water filters and smoke detectors. Water filters were invented when astronauts needed clean water in space, water filters existed in the 1950’s but NASA wanted to perfect it so there was purer water for them and they wanted the water to last them 10 times longer. Smoke detectors were invented when NASA was designing the sky lab (space station) in the 1970’s. The only problem was astronauts wouldn’t know if there was some toxic gas in the air or if a fire arose while they were on board so they created the smoke detector to give a warning when there was a fire or when it reacts to some toxic gas.
