Having striped the planet of the rare metals needed for deep space crafts, they left for their new home. Because of the needs of their food animals and their feed, they had to limit the passengers on this first round of immigrations. The plan was to establish a base and return for others.
Those of us that remained were to increase and manage supplies for the new base and later trips. Most of us farmers and herders were left behind, only a few were taken to help establish the base.
I watched what was to be last ships to leave our planet, perched on the back of my allosaurus with my herd of hadrosaurid. Little did anyone know the propulsion fields of the departing ships altered the orbits of several asteroids, including a large one that intercepted the orbit of our planet.
