And Thus, We Hoped

The sun was dying, and Earth slowly became a frozen wasteland.

Amidst the violence and the wars and the battles, a single ship was sent into the stars.

A vessel that contained the future of ?humanity?, built with the meager, remaining resources of a certain group.

A vessel built from the will of the people who wished for the human race to continue on.

What was the chance that it would complete its journey?

What was the chance that it would find a planet suited for life?

No one knew. And no one could guess.

And once the ship left, there was no more they could do.

And thus,?we?Hoped.
