[QUOTE="GuardianLurker, post: 9211087, member: 786"] Another one: The Earth is under continuous meteor bombardment, and has been for years. Each meteor is also highly radioactive. Above ground, the shallow seas have all boiled away. The deep seas are evaporating under the bombardment as well. Everything above ground is highly, lethally, radioactive. Even the deep seas are approaching similar levels of lethality; not that it matters to the sea life - it's all dead already. As a result, the survivors on Earth have had to retreat underground, desperately trying to keep everything going. But the radioactivity is seeping deeper into the earth, and it's just a question of time... Then every broadcast was interrupted by a video of a beautiful, ethereal, woman who said that she had a solution to the radioactivity, but that the people of Earth would have to come get it, and she was around a different star. She transmitted plans for an engine that could fold space, letting a ship go many, many, times faster than light. Scientists and debunkers verified the transmission. The ship was built, and stocked with everything needed for the journey, or to build a colony from scratch.
