You arrived at the planet. I couldn't believe it. It looks so ugly.
Sorry.
But I saw the pictures you sent and viewed them in the screen room. Everything is so discolored. Everything looks dead. I like our planet much better.
You were excited. You sent another message, explaining how the dirt shows potential to hold life and that was somehow a miracle.
I think I get it now. You're trying to save the planet.
But the news speakers don't say much. The Overseers don't give out information.
So, can I ask? What are you saving that distant planet from?
