Nobody wants to be Jamestown.
Nobody wants to be Plymouth.
Everybody's cool with going to other worlds and being the first to take that one small step, or when the hard job's done and everything's shiny and safe and you're kids have a future. But nobody wants that bit in the middle. Nobody wants to be the one to do the hard work, wresting their homestead with their bare hands from the cold uncaring wilderness.
The world is too comfortable, too secure.
The solution we came up with, well, it dated right back to the foundation of the Convention itself.
If you don't want to leave your home, bring your home with you. The first village arrived on Arcadia 6 months afterwards.
