The newly established Summit Research Institute developed alongside the Whale Group, showing an astonishing burst of power.
The gathering of mad scientists radiated a terrifying passion for academia. They absorbed The Madman’s Conjectures Collection at breakneck speed.
These lunatics, who straddled the line between madness and genius, ca together and sparked countless brilliant ideas, transforming into a technological turbocharger for civilization.
In 2203, a hundred years after the launch of Elite Army 005, humanity once again launched the much larger and more advanced Summit 001. The ship headed straight for the outskirts of Pluto’s orbit and started revolving around the Sun in its orbit. Although this Summit 001 was designed as a manned vessel, it still carried no crew, just a significant amount of plant and animal life.
The mission’s goal was to deepen humanity’s understanding of deep space beyond the Solar System, collect intelligence for future colonization of other star systems, and beco a stepping stone for future endeavors.
However, the plan went awry…
In 2257, an accidental gamma-ray sweep wiped out the entire ecosystem on board Summit 001. Most of the ship’s equipnt and backup supplies were destroyed, and all of the intelligent robots ceased to function. The spacecraft was reduced to a heap of scrap tal floating through space.
Humanity once again realized the fear of the vast and unfathomable depths of space and ca to understand that the plasma flow of the solar wind was Earth’s second protector, after the atmosphere.
Humbled by these events, humanity no longer arrogantly imagined they could easily venture into another star system. Instead, they began to hunker down and focus on exploiting the resources within the Solar System.
In the sa year, the first Mars Base was completed, an astonishing 130 years ahead of schedule from the previous tiline.
Over the next 200 years, by 24.80, humanity had established a sophisticated and extensive space transportation network with a presence on rcury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Ganyde, and Saturn’s Titan.
On Mars alone, there were eight large bases with a total population of over 70 million. The combined population of the other planets and satellites ranged from several million to several hundred thousand.
In the sa year, Frankie, a talented scientist at the Summit Research Institute, finally began his performance.
A large amount of tal on the unnad planet underwent a chain reaction due to an “accident” in his private laboratory. The movent of electron vortices in the tal structure beca non-random and followed a pattern, causing the satellite to vibrate continually. The resulting vibrations created a never-ending series of frequency waves.
These frequency waves were the “Morning Wind.”
Frankie feigned innocence, claiming it was a marvelous accident. However, in his moirs, people later discovered he had written the following statent:
“Morning Wind was the masterpiece that Harrison Clark and Carrie Thomas sacrificed half their lives to create, and Dr. Ryan Lai devoted his free ti to. Having paid such a huge price just to create a 90-minute audio clip? Impossible! Harrison Clark must have had a hidden purpose, and I am the one to fulfill his will. I’ll make sure everyone in the Solar System hears this song, and there’s no covering your ears.”
In any case, people were speechless about his actions, but they didn’t actually do anything.
Since the Morning Wind, at near Cosmic Background Radiation levels, produced no sound, it caused no disturbance. The difficulty of repairing the Unnad Planet was too great, and those living there experienced no ill effects, so people eventually accepted the situation.
By this ti, humans already possessed advanced technology, so if soone wanted to replicate Frankie’s actions, they could have easily accomplished it.
However, it seed that Frankie played a key role, as the famous fanatic fan of Harrison Clark had to wait for his achievents to unravel.
One year later, in 2481, Summit 002, a massive spacecraft created at the cost of all of humanity’s 50 years of accumulation and consuming vast resources, left Jupiter’s orbit on its way to Proxima Centauri, 4.2 light years away, after 224 years of hibernation.
The cone-shaped Summit 002 was 3,752 ters long, with a diater of 733 ters and a weight of 85 million tons.
Summit 002 housed 86,927 people and millions of preserved genetically-engineered eggs, forming humanity’s first expeditionary colonizing vanguard.
With 9,300 high-energy particle engines, Summit 002 could reach one-seventh the speed of light within three years, advancing at this speed under the shielding of its repulsive magnetic field.
The energy reserves on Summit 002 were sufficient to propel the ship through space at high speed for 3,000 years.
If everything went according to plan, Summit 002 would reach Proxima Centauri b in 40 years, modify the planet, and establish the first colony outside the Solar System.
With unprecedented determination and courage, humanity charged into the depths of space once again.
Leaving behind the past, never looking back.
At this ti, people were unaware that the end was near, but with the necessary conditions in place, they resolutely ventured into the unknown even though the road ahead was long and uncertain.
Deep in their genes, the boundless drive for exploration and knowledge urged these 86,000-plus volunteers to respond to a calling from the universe itself..
