The Rise and Fall of the Star People

The peoples of Earth and Mars made peace and reforged a united solar system. The survivors agreed that massive changes were necessary to ensure that such a war never occurred again. A new human subspecies was envisioned with larger brains and heightened talents, making them greater than some of their predecessors. In only a few generations, the new race began to prove as worth organized as a single state. They rapidly terraformed and colonized Venus, the asteroids, and the moons of the Jupiter and Saturn. Soon, however, even the domain of soul grew too small. The new people who inherited it wanted to go further to new worlds under distant stars. They were to become the star people.
