Summary:
The future is here: it's 2206, and humanity will soon begin colonizing new planets in the solar system. However, the government has only given NASA enough money to colonize one planet. Which planet should we colonize first? How will we go about doing it? Who should be part of the colonies? As NASA's top scientists, it falls on you to figure it out.
