In the future, humanity will spread out to other star systems for scientific, economic, and personal reasons.This story is about a group that sets off for the Trappist One star system, their struggles and their triumphs.  I am trying to make it as scientifically accurate as possible, with scientifically accurate technology, so if anyone has a question or comment about the scientific accuracy in the story, please comment about it.  For example, they don''t have artificial gravity or faster than light travel.  They travel at a small fraction of the speed of light (10% and 11.5% so far) using fusion for thrust and generate gravity using spinning cylinders.I did give the people life extension and cryogenic stasis technology so that we can have modern people as characters and because I think the technology will be developed, but both of them rely on the same technology: the manipulation of stem cells.  The cloning and meat production also uses this to provide new lifeforms in the other system and food.I tried to copy the Trappist  system as closely as I could (thanks wikipedia), filling in the blanks with what I hope was a reasonable guess.  This should help me give each world a unique feel and challenge.
