I’m gonna write a sci-fi story about how a hibernation ship from Earth arrives at Kepler-62 only to discover the Spice planets already settled by humans using FTL centuries before.
The new arrivals can’t keep a straight face during diplomatic meetings resulting in interplanetary war. Ginger is ejected from orbit and flung out into space. Briefly, it’s inhabitants rally and enjoy the new freedom, only to slowly freeze to death in obscurity.
Eventually, a mission to bring Ginger back is launched and is successful. Kepler-62 enjoys a brief time of renewed glory before the star goes supernova.
