The first humanity on Earth. When the planet was still cooling, advanced beings from a star system in the Cygnus constellation (Cygnus) established a colony in the Antarctic and helped transform the acidic oceans into alkaline. Within Mission Rama these beings are referred to as the "Elders Fathers." They studied our world and planted spores of life. Once life began to unfold, this first humanity on our planet left what was considered an unstable world.
