Why Humanity’s Last Ark Became an Evolutionary Cage

The universe does not care about our survival. We envisioned the interstellar ark as a vehicle of salvation, but the laws of physics—the rocket equation, cosmic radiation, and entropy—turned it into a multi-generational cage. In this episode of THE CIVILIZATION ENGINE, we dissect the brutal mathematics of the Stardancer mission. From the feedback loop of propellant mass vs. shielding to the microscopic biological mutations that render us alien to our own home planet, we explore why reaching a new world might be the very thing that destroys us. This isn't science fiction; it's a cold calculation of our species' future.
