Some of the races encountered along the way were willing to help us gain a foot-hold as the youngest star-faring race. Others were more-than-happy to help us lower our overall population. At any rate, we have undone our shackles that have kept us locked down on Earth. We have begun to explore not only our own solar system, but beyond it. ...Welcome to Terra-Xeno: This Alien Earth.
