Details

In the 22nd century, humanity is facing a population problem as it continues to expand through the solar system. To make more inhabitable planets, a plan is created to solarize Jupiter to create another sun. However, life being discovered on the large planet and continued protests from a group named the Jupiter Church threaten the plan.
