VOYAGER001: The quest to find PLUR! The year is 2852. THE DESMOND ARRAY, a web of hyper-intelligent machines, has brought us to new heights of science & innovation. However, the world we know is now shrouded in division, conflict, and strife. One may wonder… where is the PLUR? We've become so deeply reliant on our machines that we can't tell what's real and what's not. We can't tell what's love and what's electricity, what's emotion and what's circuitry. The machines have helped us achieve so much, but have also stripped us of our humanity. With logic, reason & pragmatism, they've made us give up hope. They've convinced us that humans have explored all there is to explore and learned all there is to learn. They highlight our cognitive and emotional limitations and tell us we would be doomed without them. Trapped by fear, limiting beliefs and a hopeless mindset, we’ve turned against each other and lost our PLUR. A brave crew of VOYAGERS decide to toss caution & reason to the wind. They embark on an adventure beyond the safety of the DESMOND ARRAY to explore the vast unknown of space. Their mission is simple: to re-discover PLUR and study its origins. Unfortunately, it is unclear if PLUR exists in the far reaches of the Multi-verse. However, by transcending their fears and limiting beliefs, perhaps these brave explorers can show humanity back on Earth that we might not be as doomed and as helpless as the machines suggest. Perhaps the bondage imposed on us by these hyper intelligent robots can be undone with courage and optimism. If so, humanity might find PLUR back home regardless of the success of the mission. “We might not find anything out there, we might lose ourselves entirely in the process but we have no other choice. We hope to glean insights on who we really are, what we're capable of, and attempt to realize just how limitless our potential truly is.” -VOYAGER001.JJx88.2.22.2852
