It is the late 21st century. The planet earth is dying. Well, more precisely, it is becoming uninhabitable for humankind. With natural resources dwindling, wars are certain to break out in the near future. In order for humanity not to perish completely, greatest nations of the world began, in secret, construction of several massive starships, dubbed colony ships, each named after one of the great philosophers and scientists of ages past. They selected the world's best and brightest for those ships.
When the time came, all those people were put into cold sleep chambers and ships launched into space, every one to a different solar system where scientists found an M-class planet in the habitable zone of that particular star.
Your ship is called the DaVinci, and you were selected for some skill or trait you excel at. You went into hibernation hopeful that when you open your eyes, a new sun, and a new world will be in front of you, ready for you to start your life all over again.
But, this is the real world.

From seeds of all kinds to resources to build shelters and weapons. Animals of all kinds were put into special biodomes with atmospheric conditions carefully regulated and tended to by numerous robots. All humans were placed in numerous cold sleep chambers, their vitals carefully monitored buy the central ship AI. Some of the technical staff would waken once after a certain period passes to run diagnostics and make necessary repairs, too complex for repair robots.
