Human Calendar 26th year, January…

It had been five years since humanity arrived at the New Solar Systeovernrand military exercise to showcase the transformation humanity had achieved in the past five years

Now, the s had reached 200 years, and it could break through to the limit of 500 years in the next 10 to 20 years Humanity had been out of Old Earth for 26 years, and that was enough for a new generation to grow up and mature In these five years, hureat technological increase

Back on Old Earth, when a country achieved a renaissance, all of its people would be able to enjoy the benefits, like land or the US They were the world leaders and their citizens were the happiest on Earth [1]

The group of people on the Hope were in a horrendous state when they left Old Earth There were only several hundred thousand of them and they had entered the unknown cosmos with fear and anxiety They came across many threats, and if not for humanity's will to survive, there wouldn't be a human race today

The hardship experienced in these 26 years couldn't even be put into words, even though the Hope had the archiving habit In fact, after the huovernment was officially formed, the archives became an official institution and all the hu the 5,000 years on old Earth and everything that happened after they went into space, were recorded into the central netic database The s became institutionalized, no one, not even Yao Yuan, would have the right to edit the them was entirely possible In fact, any member of the human race could request to access them whenever they wanted The several hundred thousand seniors would be in tears reading about the most recent 26 years The memories of the sacrifice would appear in their eneration would appreciate those who had fallen for their ability to live

But now things were different…

In the year 21, humanity arrived at the New Solar Syste newborns The accurate number was closer to 380,000

At the time, humanity only had one spaceship, the Hope, the mothership that held all human hope Other than the Hope, there was no other spaceship, and this meant that the Hope was incredibly crareatly h Even though nobody was starving, they survived only on staples like grains, celebratory meals were rare

That combined with the lack of job opportunities overnment stipends Yao Yuan knew this situation couldn't be allowed to continue for long He understood that the Hope actually had outlived its use, it could no longer support the increasing population number Furthermore, as the population increased, the quality of public amenities and environment decreased This was a vicious cycle, one that would lead to public protests and quite possibly even anarchy…

But now things were different…

Ever since humanity arrived in the New Solar Syste the renaissance, the job market slowly opened up Initially, there were still limitations to the job scope, but as the vacancies increased and the size of the shops increased In the latest public census, it found that until the year 26, the nuraduates over 22 years old was in reality only 320,000 people, and half of those were fe their career instead of the other way round Even as the benefits and social services grew, the number of available workers hadn't In fact, by year 26, there was a great lack of hueneral census in year 21, the population number was 380,000, and that shot up to 660,000 in year 26, the number alave birth twice, a great nuave birth to three children, and in fact, the nuave birth to a child every year, weirdly enough, was not small

Very soon, related reports arrived at Yao Yuan's table, scientific research pertinent to this phenomenon

This was a serious issue In fact, there was research done on it back on old Earth, it was called "the love bridge" It was the blueprint for many famous movies, especially those war flicks The leads who had met each other for the first tiet married and have children after as over This was more than a fictional convention; in fact, this happened many times in real life as well, where fear translated into love However, according to the study, after the fear wore off due to the mundane life, problems would pop up Even those ineither by the end of theof the sequel

The scientific explanation said that this was because huevity If the person felt that he was in danger, for the sake of extension of the human line, the body would assume the role of incubator This was the saer wore off, the everyday life would settle in, and unless the couple had foro their separate ways
