Chapter 19: Bratta Key's Schemes

"... and 1500 years ago, the people of Earth, our forefathers, made a conscious decision to send the children of men to the stars. The costs were great, yet they were paid. The road was long and hard yet has paid off a thousand-fold. Now the stars are sown with the seed of mankind, and nevermore do we need fear for the future of our species. Our forefathers must rest easy now, and all men everywhere owe them a debt of gratitude.

"But now we must account for what we have wrought. We must look close at the way we have built what we have built. We must move forward. We must ensure that not only our children, but also the children of men everywhere share in the equality, the justice and the freedoms that our forefathers envisioned in their tomorrows.
