Exodus: Beyond Earth

Synopsis
The year is 2136: the Earth is on the verge of global environmental collapse and Human extinction. The only hope for survival lies at the end of wormhole, hundreds of millions of light years from home. Humans destroyed one planet, what's to stop them from destroying another? Dante Murphy is a brilliant scientist and mentally unstable.

Prologue
"Four years have past since the discovery of the Exodus wormhole changed humanity forever." said a female voice. "However as nations 'peacefully' ratify to the Exodus Accords in order to save their people, factions are forming among the supposedly dissolved national governments, creating larger political movements."

Chapter 1: Pax Exodus
I'm not the religious type. Most people aren't. In the early 22nd century it is rather hard to be; not so much because science has disproved the existence of a God. There is a lot more simplistic answer: people lost faith. It's not hard to lose faith in humanity, it's even easier to lose faith one's self given the circumstances.

Humans made a mess of the planet. And despite the occasional self-proclaimed prophet telling us to repent because "the end is nigh", most people have fallen into a catatonic state. They go back and forth in their lives as if there isn't a problem, as if the air was always toxic. There are some who believe humanity will be reborn on New Terra. Maybe it's the most I can reasonably expect from most humans. We brought this upon ourselves. Not even the money that the Federal Reclamation Corporation had couldn't save us after the First Collapse and after their failure during the Mississippi River Crisis lead to the War of the Americas. Nowadays the Corporation has re-branded itself as the Exodus Project. In the end the Project is the epitome of 22nd century hubris; the fastest way arrogance can run on paleolithic hardware.
