Journalist Cory Redman concludes her controversial expose' from year 2076 with her depiction of the race to send a manned mission into deep space; the goal being to seek out long term possibilities for galactic colonization.
She turns her attention to the GU’s diabolical and rather ambitious 30-year long space flight program which began in the 2040's. In 2049, the GU Food and Agricultural Ministry calculated that food production had to increase by a minimum of seventy percent by the year 2100. Yet there isn't a definitive way to accommodate this rise in need – not on planet Earth, anyway. Temperatures on the planet have increased upwards of 3.3 ◦C, and expectations are for that to triple by the end of the century. There simply isn't any easier answer. Studies all reach one irrefutable conclusion: the destiny of humanity is to explore and colonize space.
Kapteyn B, an exoplanet within the Kapteyn star system, 12.8 light years away, is believed to be the best candidate for colonization.
