A novel, 2312 by Kim Stanley Robinson, is set in a period where the world has been severely impacted by climate change and interplanetary travel is not only possible but common.  In addition to terraforming Mercury, Venus, Mars, and several of the moons of Jupiter, many asteroids have been hollowed out and biomes established in their centers.  These biomes in some cases replicate pre-climate change earth conditions of a wide variety of environments.  In other cases (what the author refers to as Ascensions), the biomes are more eclectic and include flora, fauna and habitats from a wide variety of biomes.  They are designed to be self-sufficient, with only “luxuries” imported.

                  This is your chance to be creative.  You may work as an individual to design your asteroid.  It would definitely be useful to read the novel before designing your biome.  You must consider what the climate will be, its geology, energy sources, climate, water resources, resource conservation, sustainable plant and animal life, and the lifestyle of the individuals who will inhabit the asteroid.  The asteroid may be of either type, but it must be self-sufficient.  You do not have to consider the mechanics of developing the habitat but must fully describe the finished product.
