Night Bright City Abstract

The devices that we use to run our city use high efficiency technology based on nanotechnology.  The name of our city is called Night Bright. The year is to be 2150. The reason why we call it Night bright is because of how it has a lot of light to give to our city and when it gets dark it looks like Las Vegas.  Our city is inviting because we offer better and more affordable housing with traditional and fun accommodations.  Night Bright contains various businesses including hospitals, health spas, law enforcement agencies, etc.  Night Bright is vastly different than the days of old, but still offers the same traditional comforts like shopping, tourism, and entertainment.  Food is retrieved from machines in the dehydrated form.  After water is added, an ultimate feast can be enjoyed within seconds.  Energy from the sun is built up in our solar powered RVs and allows our city to run using stored up energy from daylight hours.  Nights in our city offer loads of fun activities and older teens and young adult night life.  Older adult usually use solar powered facilities where they can spend the night and return to their own vehicle at their leisure. 

We have work opportunities both in the factories and in retail businesses.  Building materials are not locally available when living in Night Bright City.  The factories in the country that build the RVs for the residents make them faster, cheaper, and better than traditional building materials.  Housing is more affordable because the RV is driven directly to a specific site.  The people that live in our city will be able to travel to other cities for recreational activities, but mostly, to compare the differences in living styles.  Our residents are faithful to our drought city.  They always return with more people to decide to relocate to our city.
