Status Updates From Spaced Out (Moon Base Alpha...

SETTING: The setting is in the future on a moonbase. When describing where the story takes place it says, “the story takes place on a moonbase in a mdv” (p.1). This setting impacts the story because there on the moon in a base so there a lot of people in the base so lack of space,air, and fresh food also they have to deal with unexpected problems.

Great!

PREDICTION: I predict that the sun will die. In the story says Zan to Dashial , “I need to tell you something. I think the sun i dying because there is a substance like pathogen that is affecting the sun in a weird way” (247 ). This prediction makes sense because Zan hints that something bad is happening, and now the sun is being affected. I think that this is linked to something.

ANTAGONIST: The antagonist in this story is Patton. The text says, “every body hates him he’s mean very rude fast to judge” (175).It creates conflict because Patton attacked Dashial because Patton was mad with Roddy so he thought that Dashial had something to do with it so he attacked Dashial which resulted in Patton getting a beating.Everybody hates Patton because this stuff is what he does to not get bored.

MINOR: A minor character in this story is Kira. In the story, Kira is Dashall’s friend and she helps with the plot. She was there when they were geting chased by Patton and she was mad and fighting back. Dashall kinda likes her and she is a big part of the book.
