Synopsis
A quarter million humans migrate from a dying Earth to a new planet Tikopia IV orbiting the star Tau Ceti. Their journey to Tikopia IV is aboard a giant rotating Torus Ark named Tikopia III. The namesake for their Ark and the new planet is an island in the Pacific Ocean of Earth called Tikopia which had once been inhabited sustainably for over three thousand years. Our cautionary tale begins with our heroine, a journalist Ida Tarbell. Her character is based on the journalist famous for taking down Standard Oil in 1905 CE. Ida interviews various experts aboard Torus Ark about what happened on the Earth to cause the biosphere to collapse leading to human extinction. Her work ultimately takes her to the surface of the new planet, Tikopia IV, as humans endeavor to explore and settle their new world.
