Generations: The Damned Colony

In the year 2092 overpopulation had stressed the Earth's ecosystem to the breaking point. World governments had come together to find solutions for the crisis, but the only conclusion was to immediately reduce the Earth's population by half within 30 years. Several programs would be implemented immediately including colonization of Mars, Titan, and Europa. Tens of millions were relocated whether voluntarily or by force. Although the numbers deported to offworld colonies were immense the goal of removing half of the population still hadn't come close to being realized. Those remaining were subjected to a global lottery. Some were allowed to remain, others were forcefully sterilized or executed for the sake of all of humanity. The remainder, some 120,000 people considered to be too useful to liquidate yet still losing a place in the lottery would be exiled on generation ships and sent to seed habitable worlds throughout nearby star systems. 40 ships containing 3000 settlers each were sent to every known habitable world. You are on the E.S. Dreadnaught with a final destination of Kepler-69c, considered to be a super habitable planet in the Kepler star system. The only personal possessions you were allowed to bring must fit within a 30cm x 30cm box and mass no more than 10kg which is placed into your locker along with your personally assigned gear. You will enter stasis nude for ease of maintenance during the voyage. Good luck and God speed.
