i thought this story was pretty good. I liked how much detail it went into. I did have a question though, was Ganymede another planet reletively close to earth? It kinda reminded me of the movie serenity or the series firefly. Because in the beginning they are talking about how they need to move to a different planet where "they" havent got to yet. and in that movie its the same thing, The Allliance in that movie is controlling the people except for some planets that are outside of their reach. which is the same case here because the only planets not affected are the ones outside the solar system.
