This is a presentation that was created for a univeristy lesson. We were instructed to create a web page promoting a travel destination. We all used Powerpoint as the web page.
If you down load this presentation you will find it has hyperlinks and works pretty well as a web page.
I thought I would get away from the norm and do my web page on the Martian city of Mindaroo. Everyone else was doing real locations, and I though that was boring. This was about the only assignment at uni that we could do where you had to use your imagination.
This is about 15 years old now, but I still like it. Yes it has mistakes, but I still got a high distinction for it. Please enjoy.

Mars is such a welcoming place that even the
President wants you to come.
“I have been told by many people that the only thing I ever talk abut is Mars. I
know that that is how it must seem at times but once you have been to Mars you
will see why I can’t stop talking about this wonderful planet.
One of the greatest places to visit when on Mars is Mindaroo. A beautiful city
with warm people who love have a good time. And of course Mindaroo is the
closet city to the Face of Mars.
If there is one thing I feel very strongly about is that, every one at one stage of
their live should come to Mars and see the Face. The mystery that surrounds the
Face and the fact that it proves that we are not alone in the universe should be
reason enough. Who knows you may even crack the mystery while you are here.
But what ever your visit to Mars please know that you will be welcome at any
time. I hope to see you in the future”

One of the best features that Mindaroo has to offer to any person from the
Tri-system league is our wonderful climate. As most locals know there is
nothing like feeling the sun on the Face to brighten up any day.
Like most planets in the Sol system Mars uses a Hypieron Fusion Star
Generator to increase the temperature levels of the planet to a comfortable
level. The man made star is in a fixed orbit around Mars and in perfect
alignment with the Sol’s systems star so you won’t even know it was there.
Mars also uses a Profine Weather Control System to coordinate the
Martian weather. This not only helps the local farmers to keep control of
their land but allows tourist to know when there will be rain to plan their
days. But for most of the time the weather is fine with temperatures in the
mid 20’s Celsius and short shirts sleeves very popular.
To help you plan your trip to Mindaroo below is the time table for the
weather pattern.

The History of Mindaroo
Mindaroo has a proud history with the city being the first settlements to
established on Mars. The early settlers was primary scientist who wish to
scourer the Face Of Mars and unlock the secrets which the Face held.
Though the face proved to be nothing more than elusive with the creators of
the Face still being unknown the pull of the Face has always when popular
with tourists. Once the Martian surface had been successfully Terra Formed
non military personnel began colonise the planet and Mindaroo changed
from being a scientific outpost to one of attraction and fun.
In the year of 02 while Mindaroo's vineyards were being created, gold was
discovered around Mindaroo and the still fledgling town attracted more
people who were out to make a their fortune. While the mining of gold
helped to establish Mindaroo than more than just a tourist destination, it was
the discovery of Duranium that cemented Mindaroo as a leading commercial
centre. Now days the mines around Mindaroo are the largest supplier of
Duranium and gold in the Tri-System League.
With the introduction of mining to Mindaroo a space port was built and the
doors opened up for both commercial and private ship, and transport carriers
to fly in and out of the city. From there the city exploded and has grown in to
the city that it is today.

Since man first began to look into the heavens Mars has held a special place in the
human imagination. Hundreds of books and movies have been made about the
planet and the life that it might have held, yet no one was ready for the impact that
the Face of Mars would have.
Constructed by still an unknown race the face has become one of the most intriguing
artefacts ever discover by man. The Face of Mars was the first symbol of other
intelligent life in the universe, suggesting that the Human race is not alone.
The Face was first discovered by an early space probe from the now decimated
planet of Earth. Though the records of the space probe were destroyed after the war
of 2045 many scientist believe it was the Viking space probe that captured the first
photo’s in the late 1970’s.

Though what ever the reason for the
Face or when it was discovered it still
remain a great feat of engineering by
any race. Visible from orbit the Face
stands out like a beacon for ships
arriving at Mindaroo. This is a site
that no person should ever miss. It is
the greatest mystery of all time and
waiting for you today.
