If I discovered the rope, what would I do?
If i discovered the rope, I would probably take a picture and leave to tell a friend so I wouldn’t be alone if something happen. I would also probable contact the police for just in-case.
Can you think of some arguments for / against pulling it (when you don’t know what it does)?
For pulling the rope — You should pull it to find out what it does for just in-case it is bad… before it gets into the wrong hands, and pull it for if you could get a good outcome.
Against pulling the rope — The rope should probably not be pulled or touched for if something really bad happens because it is not every day you see a rope dangling from the sky, it could do anything from explosions to extinction.
Think of some questions that you would like to ask the man about what happened. How might he respond?
1. Why did you pull the dangling rope in the sky?
2. What did you think as you approached the dangling, red and posh rope?
3. How did you feel when the rope fell down onto the ground?
Responses:
1. I pulled the rope, wanting to know what would happen.
2. I was thinking of what would happen and all of the possibilities. Would we die, would we be rich… what would happen?
3. I felt really surprised and hoped that the sun would come back again, had I ruined humanity with my stupidity and nosiness?

Forever night in Paris!
In the city of Paris, a long rope, with undiscovered science at the top, has been discovered and has been broken. Scientists all over the globe are researching this rope and is researching whether the city (or even country) will ever have light again! So far, scientists have already found out the culprit of this broken light and are currently questioning him in a secret facility near his home city of Paris. Any people of Paris should only use a small amount of power, recycling facilities are now only burning at a low rate to allow more generation of power. Due to no solar energy generation, we will be experiencing alot less power around the country of France.
