Which specific cover of the Metroid opening is the music from that?Just a lil' sumthin sumthin I threw together tonight, to keep you guys as amped for this as I am.
Also, while I recognized the pods from First Contact, where's the footage of the "not everything going well with many of them breaking up" re-entry from?

The Bounty of a Brain, by Big Giant Circles
Gravity
And if anybody else wonders, the attack and ship destruction sequence came from Freespace 2.
I am adding a family member then, since we are allowed and I think it was said we needed miners. This is my late grandpa. Born and raised on a farm in rural Sweden (but I'm ignoring that for his skills). Only had 6 years of schooling. Sweden had/has mandatory military service for men. So he spent at least one year doing that. Possibly longer, I never asked. Built his own summer vacation house from scratch. Worked all his life in a Volvo factory and collected (pretty) rocks as a hobby. That's like mining, right?

Funnily enough, I can set his biological age to 18 and his chronological age to 70
(It means he went into cryptosleep for 52 years at some point)

It's not canonIf the preview video is canon, how many survive that first mass mental break?
We might not land in that biome, after all.

Do you want to start married, or strangers?
Also, you don't get bonus points for nudist because it gives a massive morale buff when you're nude, and only a small debuff for being clothed.

I was wondering when you were gonna show up
Oh boy. You realize what you've done? Zero has a male rat. There's gonna be... a lotta little rats
If they had been sensible and had "weasel" as a choice, we could have avoided all this nonsense.I was wondering when you were gonna show up
