The terraforming of Epsilon V was the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. The colours of the explosions, the rapid thickening of the atmosphere and of course the forming of the landmasses and oceans. I have thought long and hard for a good name to give the planet but ¾ of the way through the terraforming process it came to me: Ertha after the germanic goddess of the earth. I thought this name very fitting because the entire terraforming process I was thinking: before Earth was destroyed by global warming a lot of humans believed in a being or beings that they called god or gods. They believed that God created the planet they lived on. Because I read about this relatively recently I thought of myself and my fleet as gods seeing as we also created a planet out of a big stone/ metal ball. The fleet will now prepare to jump back to Oceanus to wait until the colony ship is completed.
