CHAPTER 2 - THE JOURNEY From this point the planet reached a great stability and began to consider expansion space. That said, we must clarify that in the cosmos there is only an evolved species that is human, there are not many intelligent species as we see in doing science fiction movies. In the same way that if a stone into the water pulled this down to the bottom to be more dense, just as an evolving planet in the end only the triumph of the human species, because it is the most successful to develop a fully sort mode. It is at this time, when the original planet discovered the land and plans to send an expedition to it were established, they would be mainly two reasons. On the one hand, study the Earth's evolution and compare it with his own. And on the other, contribute as much as possible to human evolution, but without interference, i.e. an indirect way for land to develop itself, a planet would lose his freedom if he will impose the ideas, the earth has to find their own way. For this trip were used so-called generation ships, i.e. ships that the crew would marry and have children, living a normal life until they reach their destination. Contrary to popular belief on earth, is not necessary for a spacecraft to travel very fast through space to reach a planet, the key is not on speed, but on the living conditions on the ship. People on earth cannot conceive of space travel rather than a quick trips and especially in small ships. Actually for interstellar travel required ships of up to several kilometers in size are forming a space community, these ships would not exceed fifteen percent of the speed of light, only energetic particles reach the speed of light, the more inert and material is an object, the slower it, so this speed would be cruising speed of the fastest ships, by using nuclear power, ship an indefinite power supply would be ensured all the way, do not forget that in space this is the only energy that can be used, for being the ship far from the sun, the trip and could last several centuries, still life like on the planet of origin, the expedition could have twenty thousand people in a dozen ships.
