Question 1 of 10
1. I am entering the first level of Earth's atmosphere this very second. Say, what do you earthlings call the outermost layer of your atmosphere? Hint


Question 2 of 10
2. Entering the atmosphere made my landing gears malfunction, and I had to make an emergency crash-landing! There is an oddly bent (almost leaning) building next to me. I can't believe it is still standing. Where am I? Hint


Question 3 of 10
3. Luckily for me, my hovercar was undamaged in the crash. However, I have now run into what must be the largest mountain in this entire world, using conventional measures. What do you people call this huge mountain? Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. Having avoided the mountain, I now have come to another spectacular site. There is a wall below me, and using my long-range lenses I can see that this wall goes on for thousands of miles. Where am I? Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. I can't help but notice what lies below me. There is a cluster of erect rocks, placed in a circular position. Could this be some sort of religous ground? Where am I? Hint


Question 6 of 10
6. Next, I come to a harbor with a giant green lady. She holds a torch and a tablet inscribed "July IV, MDCCLXXVI". She seems to be a sort of welcome mat. Please tell me where I am (and where I can get that green woman's number). Hint


Question 7 of 10
7. Next, I come to a beautiful mausoleum made of spectacular white marble. The dome on top is especially dazzling. It would make a great gift for any woman. What is the name of this majestic place? Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. I now come to a hill overlooking a beautiful city. On the hill, there is what remains of a building, supported by many columns. I can tell it has been destroyed and rebuilt many times. There are statues of gods inside the building. Which of your archaic earthly gods was this place dedicated to? Hint


Question 9 of 10
9. I am close to the end of my journey, but I have found something that troubles me dearly. You see, I value perfection above all else, and I have come across a bell with a clear crack in it. Is this some sort of symbol? What is this object, and where am I? Hint


Question 10 of 10
10. I realize as I leave that I only visited three of your so-called "continents." How many continents in total are on your Earth? Hint
