OVERVIEW: The UESC Marathon, at over 25 kilometers long [get precise #s for record], is by far the largest ship the Solar system has ever produced.
Over 30,000 [close enough?] people from every corner of the solar system were brought together to participate in the building of the great ship. Its ultimate goal: Travel to Earth's nearest viable neighbor on human civilization's first purpose-built interstellar spacecraft and expand not only our knowledge of the universe, but also on what is knowable. [credit Strauss]
It is a common misconception that the materials used to construct the Marathon's hull came solely from Deimos, but largest percentage of the resources used in the ship's early development were actually mined from the main asteroid belt. [Worth mentioning to acknowledge MIDA on Mars? Will MIDA still be around when anyone reads this? Will Mars?]
The Marathon carries within it a total of 11 cutting-edge strong Artificial Intelligences. Three of them are dedicated to the smooth operation of the ship itself, the other eight will oversee all the different aspects of the settlement that the colonists will build once they arrive on Tau Ceti IV.
The brave souls aboard this great ship will undergo phased cycles of cryosleep and thaw during their journey to limit [DOC add in approved wording here] and ensure that the crew arrives at their destination alert and healthy. [should I mention that this summary is part of my cognitive test or not, RE setting expectations?] The command structure of the Marathon was carefully assembled with these handoffs in mind, and eventually I myself will soon temporarily cede command to undergo several years of cryosleep. Bringing this ship into orbit above Tau Ceti IV will be the highlight of my career, even if that moment remains nearly three centuries away. The human race itself depends on our mission.
[It is said/many people felt] the planning and execution of Marathon's journey to the Tau Ceti system unified Sol's disparate nations, bringing about unity and prosperity that had never been seen before.
The Marathon was not only a technological marvel, but a social and economic miracle as well. [DOC please allow hyperbole]
