A question about a book...

[Mudbill]

Some lore things though: I don't see why the ARK would crash into the Sun or the Moon, since it was set on a straight travel direction far out from the solar system from what I understand. I don't believe it was set to orbit the Sun at all. Of course, your characters may not know that, but they somehow know of the ARK project itself, even though Pathos-II believed they were the last living humans, so how did they get that information/misinformation?
