The ship has room and food for only 24 animals. No large equipment can be brought. In addition to the animal, the tool, and the book, each person will bring no more than a total of 20 pounds of anything else you suggest for the use of the colony, and each can bring an additional 5 pounds of personal choice items. The ship cannot carry more weight that this. Remember, except for the animals, everything must be carried.
Nothing is to be carried by the animals.
Assume that the items taken will be the only supplies ever available from anywhere in the universe except for what might be produced on the planet Questerion itself. The colonists will almost certainly make their own rules and laws as their society and culture develops and as new situations arise. They are leaving Earth forever, and no power on Earth can control what they do. However, on the long space flight, and when they land, there should be some basic rules and principles of social organization and ethical behavior to guide them, including rules for changing the rules. Don't write it, just give suggestions, with reasons.
