    TOP SECRET

    You are a member of an elite NASA team that is planning for the first mission to the outer planet of Neptune, which is 49 AUs away. This mission will provide important information about the planet. Engineers have created two prototype spacecrafts for the journey, which are faster than any spacecraft ever made. The first ship travels at 3.5 AUs per day. The other has turbo boost technology, and can travel at the incredible speed of 7 AUs per day. However, the turbo boost lasts for only two days, and then the ship will travel at 2.5 AUs per day. Based on this information, you must decide which ship will reach Neptune faster. Make the right choice and you will be heroes! Make the wrong choice, however, and the president will be very disappointed
