Commander:
The attack on our research base has shown that remote bases will be difficult to defend. A centralized colony will not stretch our defensive resources across too large an area. We have established a new location based on this strategy.
Further analysis of the Blight has confirmed our deepest fears. It cannot be stopped.
New Terra is doomed.
To survive we must once again take to the stars. The construction of our starship has become our highest priority. We must build a Spaceport and launch our Skydock to begin construction in orbit. This effort will require large quantities of metals. Our new location is near several potential mining sites that will help in this effort.
We believe we can carry about 200 colonists on the starship. Leaving people behind would be another avoidable tragedy for our colony, so be careful managing our population growth. Idle the Nursery and University as needed to slow down the birth rate.
We cannot absorb any delays in our starship construction. The Blight is spreading at an increasing rate. We have no margin for error. Do not let any threats from Eden hamper our efforts. Be prepared to defend our base against any incursions.
Our schedule is difficult and our needs are great. Check the Specific Objectives list to see what must be accomplished to survive.
