I would rather live under the sea instead of living in space. First,you could look for medicines in plant to cure diseases. Second,you could look for cool animals(even if they are dangerous.) Third,you could help species of animals that are endangered. Some may think it is better to live in space because you get to eat GROSS foods. That is why I think living under the sea is better.
ReplyDeleteI would rather live in the sea than in space. First, we could go up to the shore and stay in a motel and live there but our house would be under the sea. Second, you could live were the water is two feet deep. Finally, you could eat fish. Some people may think that living in space is better because there are aliens. This is why I choose to live in the sea.
ReplyDeleteI would rather live under the sea. First, you wouldn't get lonely because you could play with the fish. Second, it would get boring because there is nothing to do and it would get annoying to float around everyday. Third, You could swim and you could go above water sometimes too. Some people would not ,like it because there are sharks.But stay away from them and they will stay away from you. That's why I would rather live under the sea.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to choose living in space or under the sea, I would live in outer space! First, if I lived in outer space I would be on TV for how great I was! Second, I would be floating everywhere!! Finally, I could see places that most people don't see in their lifetime. (I would even live there!) But others may love Ariel the Mermaid and they might want to live with her. Or they get motion sick quickly. But I would love to live in space!
ReplyDeleteIf I had to between living under the sea or in space I would probably choose, to live under the sea. One, is that living in the sea would be so much fun! you could hang out with dolphins all the time. Two, is that you could make your home in a coral reef and maybe see the elusive butt from Finding Nemo. Finally, you could discover all sorts of things like new fish and sharks just waiting to be found. However. some may argue that living in space is better, but I don't want to be in a place that is endless and slows time down. So that is why I would live under the sea.
ReplyDeleteI would rather live under the sea because you would have super power. Second, if you live under the sea you could see lots of fish. Third, I think water is better than space. Some may argue that space is better to live in but it is scary in space with the aliens. I would rather live under water.
ReplyDeleteIf I had the choice of living in space or living underwater, I would live in space. first, There is pollution in the water. If there wasn't, I would live underwater. Second, you could do parkour on Saturn's ring like a boss. Third, I think they're building a hotel on the moon, so I could live there. fourth, you could be famous for discovering if aliens are real! Some may argue that living underwater would be better because you could make friends with fish. But I would choose living in space.
ReplyDeleteIf I were to choose whether I would live underwater or live in Space I would definitely live in space. First of all, it is my life dream to go to space and I could just go to the beach and go underwater. Second, almost all people can go underwater and live in a house nearby. Finally, in space you could do backflips and cool stunts in space that you ca only do in space. However, some people may say living underwater would be awesome because they like dolphins and whales. I am not super interested in those things and I have already seen those things. That is why I would rather live in space rather than in water.
ReplyDeleteIf I could live in space or under the sea, I would choose living under the sea. First off I love swimming!!! Secondly I could learn so much more than I know about underwater animals. I could even find a new species underwater. However some people may think that living in space would be better because you could see so many things like the sun, stars, and maybe even discover a new planet, but you would get lonely if you were in space. But If you are in the water there are animals, colors, and happiness. Also who likes having hot space gear on, and all ways having to breath through a tube? Because of these reasons I would choose living under the sea.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to choose to live in space, or live under water. I would choose to live under water. First of all, I would become a merman. Second of all, you would be close to civilization. Fourth of all, you could just come on land and walk around, but you would still live under water it kind of like you living on land then you go snorkeling and you're in the water. Finally, I would learn how to hold my breath for a really long time and be one with the fish. Although some people may argue that you could do awesome parkour in space. That is why i would live under water.
ReplyDeleteThis is easy, I would rather live under the sea if I had to choose between living outer space or under the sea.Here are my reasons why. You could see many animals and discover some new ones. You could have a glass house so you could watch deadly animals and be safe. You could even swim with dolphins! Sharks could come up to your house and you would be able to watch what they do without being attacked. Could you imagine living in a tropical reef. You could see all fish and you could have pets! It would be like in aquariums where you stand on the moving floor and watch sharks, fish, jellyfish,sea turtles, and dolphins swim over you. You could lay in bed and fall asleep with fish swimming around. If you had a pet dolphin then you could ride it around and play with it. You could go fishing and then release the fish. Although some people may argue that living in outer space would be better, I disagree. Outer Space is such a harsh living condition. You couldn't have normal food and you could not go and play outside without a big suit. Also you would get lonely and you might be attacked by aliens! That is why I would rather live under the sea instead of outer space.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to choose between living under the sea or living in space, I would definitely choose to live under the sea. Here are my reasons why. First, You could see many different animals that live in the sea. I have always dreamed of scuba diving and see ing turtles. Second, If I was able to transform into any animal under the sea, I would transform into a turtle because they are very graceful and elegant. I would also transform into a turtle because they have good protective skills and have a hard shell on their backs. The last reason I would be a turtle is because they are very CUTE!!!!! Finally, You would probably have a 68% chance of dieing in space. However, some people may argue that they would rather live in space because you could travel to different planets and try the space food. I would not like to live in space because I'm not very scientific. Those are my reasons and my counter argument why I would rather live under the sea.
ReplyDeleteI forgot to add in my counter argument that some people would rather want to live in space because there is zero gravity.
If I had to choose between living in space or under the sea, I would definitely choose to live under the sea. Here are my reasons why. First, If I lived under the sea I could see all the cool things that are under water. I would also be a dolphin and I could meet my dolphin family. Second, If I lived in space I would have to eat space food.. and that doesn't sound very good. Third, If I was a dolphin under the sea I could go swimming and explore the underwater. I could make new fish friends, I could talk to anybody under water, and I could
ReplyDeleteentertain people by jumping by the side of the boat. Finally, I could go farther in the sea without being scared of getting bit by jellyfish. Some people may argue and say these reasons why they disagree with me. First, they could say that space is a lot more fun because there is no gravity and you can fly. Second, they could say that they are scared of the ocean and that if they lived under sea that they would not like it. Finally, they could have said that they would like to live in space because they could see the stars. Those are my reasons why some people may argue with me or agree with me.
I love the sea. It is a wonderful place to be! I would love to swim like a dolphin and play like a an orca. I would definitely live in the sea. First, it reminds me of happiness, peacefulness, and joyfulness! I would be a dolphin named Joy! I love tropical places like the ocean. I always go to the beach every Fourth of July! Second, I could discover new places in the ocean! I love watching movies based on the ocean every movie night. This summer, I have a list of ocean movies that I want to see that we can see at the beach! Finally, I love the rhythm of the waves at the beach. Even though the waves at the beach are dangerous, I love playing in the ocean! However, some people don't like the ocean because it can have dangerous waves such as atidle wave and a sunami. But, space is a lot of work to be able to go into space. It takes two years for you to get into space! WOW! Those are my reasons why I would rather live in the ocean than live in space.
ReplyDeleteIf I could choose between living under the sea or in space I would choose living under the sea. First My dream job is to be a marine biologist so it would be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Second I play a lot of Subnataca (water based survival game) so would have like 50% of experience because in this scenario i'm in 3044. Finally I think it would be cool to live in the ocean because I could swim with dolphins, sharks, and sea turtles along with other aquatic life. Some might say space is better because average spine growth on earth is 5.4 but in space it is 7 feet.
ReplyDeletei would rather live in space because 1 it is beautiful 2 because it has no gravity that means there is nothing to hold you back 3 you could walk on planets like the moon. although some may that living under the the sea is better because it has a song that is petty catchy well that is weird so come live in space with me were it is awesome.
ReplyDeleteI would rather live in space. First, you are just floating. Second, it is cool. Finally, it is so beautiful. However, some say that living under water is better because you could see creatures.
ReplyDeleteIf I had the choice of living in space or under the sea I would live in space. My first reason is that in space you can fly anywhere. My second reason is that you could explore new universes. My third reason is you could fly in a rocketship.
ReplyDeleteHowever, some may argue that living under the sea is better because you can see all the sea life. But a shark or a giant squid could munch you up! That is why I would go in space.
If I had to choice to live under water or to live i space,I would choose to live under water! First, I love looking at new and exciting creatures under the sea! Second, I love swimming scuba diving and snorkeling! Third, I could ride on dolphins and my favorite sea animal the narwhale could be my friend. Some may say that living in space is better because you can climb the moon ,but I would like to live under da sea!
ReplyDeleteIf I had to choose between living in space or living under the sea, I would choose to live under the sea. First,if you lived under the sea you could have pet crabs, fish, and maybe even a whale. Second, if you lived under the sea you would never get dehydrated. Finally, on hot days you won't get hot. However, some people prefer to live in space because every morning you can wake up and see the world below you, you could float in the air and do flips, and you could walk on the moon. I would rather live under the sea!
ReplyDeleteIf I had to choose between living under the sea and living in space I think I would choose to live under the sea with the fish. For example, you would get fresh food. Not canned or dried food. Next, I would get to hang out with all the fish and not be lonely. Finally, I think I would live under the sea because I would get to see all the pretty things under the sea. Like, the plants, animals, and how the animals change. Anyhow, others may say that if you lived under the sea you would most likely get eaten by something... But, I still would choose to live under the sea rather than living in space.
ReplyDeleteIf I either had to live in space or under the sea, I would choose to live under the sea. First, because there are so many things to see under the sea. Second, It would be cool to breath under water. Finally, I would not want to live in space because it is cold, and there is not any gravity so you would just float around, although it would be cool to see outer space, I would still want to live under the sea.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to choose between living in space or under the sea I would choose under the sea. First, I could have a dolphin for a friend and it would be awesome so yeah dolphin. Second, I would not want to go into space for two reasons one, I would get sick from being dizzy two, I would probably barf like 10,000,000 times.Finally. think about this you have to work out every day for two hours and you would have to eat horrible food that's gross. Although, some may argue that being in space is better because there would be pollution in the ocean. Well I would still rather be in the sea because you wouldn't barf.
ReplyDeleteIf I could live in space or live underwater, I would live in Space. First, you can have any meal in Space. Second, you could always look at planets. Finally, you could float around in your bedroom. However, some people might like to live underwater. Their reasons might be you would still live on Earth, you could see cool fish, and you could get food whenever you want it. Some people might like that, but I would still rather live in Space. Those are my reasons for wanting to live in Space.
ReplyDeleteI would rather live under the sea than in space. First, you can make friends with the animals in the sea. Second, you can swim with the animals in the sea. Third, on hot days you want get hot and there is a catchy song that goes like under the sea under the sea life is always when you live under the sea. However some people might choose to live in space with no gravity so you can float. That is why I chose under the sea so come live with me.
ReplyDeleteIf I had choose between living in space or living under the sea, I would live in space. First, it's awesome. Second, there is no gravity, so you can do flips and jump really high. Finally you could go to other planets. Some might say that living under the sea is better because you can watch the turtles, but there aren't any stars in the sea. That's why I would live in space.
ReplyDeleteThis would you rather is easy. If I had to choose between living underwater or in outer space. I would choose to live underwater. Here are my reasons why. 1st I could live with all the sea creatures in the world like turtles, dolphins, sharks, manatees, and a lot more. 2nd, I wouldn't have to eat space food which is gross! I tastes like dirt and dust, and is very dry! Which if you haven't tried it you shouldn't! 3rd, you could have a glass house on the bottom of the ocean and watch all the animals and be careful for deadly ones too. 4th you could watch and study the animals for hours like I do on the beach. 5th you could scuba dive with turtles that has always been a dream of mine. Although, some may argue that living in space is better because you don't have gravity and you could just float around. You can also study all of the planets for your whole lifetime (Which doesn't sound fun to me but fun for others) But I still think that living in the ocean is better then living in space.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to chose between living under the sea or living in space ,I would chose to live in the sea. First, You could play with all the sea animals everyday and have a blast. Second, If you did live in space there is not one person to keep you company. Finally, you could discover a different animal that not one person has seen. However, some may argue that if you did live in space you could have anti-gravity and float around. I would rather live under the sea.
ReplyDeleteI would rather live under the sea. first, I will be able to breathe under the water. Second, I could swim with the dofins. Third, I love to swim so much. However some may say living in space is better because you get to fly. That is why I choose under the sea.
ReplyDeleteIf I had to choose between living in space or living under the sea, I would choose to live under the sea. Here are my reasons why. First, you could see all the animals and possibly be the first one to find a new type of animal. Second, if you lived in space no one could keep you company. Lastly, if you ran out of fuel in space you couldn't go anywhere, and if you lived in water you could get a great exercise every day.
ReplyDeleteHowever, some may argue that living in space would be better because you would have anti-gravity, but living in water you would get the same effect. That is why living in the water would be better.
If either lived in space or in the sea, I would live in the sea. I have four reasons why. First, living in the see would be so awesome! I would breathe underwater and explore the ocean like nobody ever has! I could go all the way to the bottom of the ocean, or I could go investigating in coral reefs! It would be amazing! Second, I could become famous for it. I could find many things lost to see like atlantis, shipwrecks, and discover interesting creatures! I could find out if mermaids and sea monsters are real. I would be in every ocean book with an article on everything that I have done. Third, I could have an awesome house! I would have a pool, and it would be the gigantic ocean! My house would be made entirely out of glass so I could see the whole ocean from inside my house. I would have a tank that led into the ocean for visitors. It would be for any wandering animal that wanted to stop by-it would be so cool! Finally, I could have an amazing experience animals like no one has! I could find out a way to talk to animals, and have a special bond with them. I would love every second of my life living in the sea. Although I think it would be almost too good to be true to live under the sea, some may argue that living in space is better. after all, you could discover aliens, go out of the galaxy, and lots of other things. But, it would be kind of creepy. I would always be nervous that I would run out of air. That is why I think living underwater is way better than living in space.
ReplyDeleteIf it was an opion I would choose under the sea because i would come up to get food and then go back down if needed but I like to look under water.
ReplyDeleteI would choose living in space. First, you get to float around in your ship, and pretend your Superman. Second, it is peaceful and relaxing. Third, you can travel to Pluto, or, Mars, and other planets. Some other people might say that living underwater is better because you get to have underwater friends, but you could get eaten by a shark and die. So in conclusion I think living in space is better.
