Summary, please?
:41:21
Project Genesis.
A proposal to the Federation.
:41:24
- Carol Marcus.
- Yes.
:41:27
What ex actly is Genesis?
:41:30
Well, put simply,
Genesis is life from lifelessness.
:41:36
It is a process whereby
molecular structure is reorganised
:41:40
at the sub-atomic level into life-
generating matter of equal mass.
:41:45
Stage One of our experiments
was conducted in the laboratory.
:41:48
Stage Two will be attempted
in a lifeless underground.
:41:52
Stage Three will involve
the process on a planetary scale.
:41:56
It is our intention to introduce
the Genesis device
:42:00
into a pre-selected area of a lifeless
space body, such as a moon.
:42:05
The device is delivered,
instantaneously causing
:42:08
what we call the Genesis Effect.
:42:11
Matter is reorganised
with life-generating results.
:42:30
Instead of a dead moon,
a living, breathing planet
:42:33
capable of sustaining whatever
lifeforms we deposit on it.
:42:37
Fascinating.
:42:39
The moon simulated here represents
a fraction of Genesis' potential,
:42:44
should the Federation wish to fund
the experiment to its conclusion.
:42:49
When we consider the cosmic problems
of population and food supply,
:42:53
the usefulness of this process
becomes clear.
:42:56
This concludes our proposal.
Thank you for your attention.
