ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“Aurora” by Kim Stanley Robinson follows the journey of a multi-generational crew aboard a starship traveling to colonize the distant exoplanet, Aurora. As the crew faces technical, ecological, and societal challenges, the story explores themes of human resilience, the ethical dilemmas of space colonization, and the limits of technological ambition. The narrative weaves scientific realism with character-driven drama, delving into the psychological and philosophical struggles of the crew, particularly Freya, a young woman coming of age on the ship. The book raises questions about humanity's place in the universe and the environmental cost of expansion.
