I'll bet that the passengers would have a hard time remembering for 10000 years how to live on a planet. There ship would be home, and they would probably decide that it would be a better idea to stay on the ship when they got there. They would probably not be the same type of people that we sent, maybe even evolving to their environment on the ship to a degree. A few of the brave may decide to try to land and give life on the planet a shot, but I doubt people would be itching to leave the ship. There culture would be very interesting, having more history on the ship than we have clearly documented now, or when they were sent (26th century + 100 century's) They would be sent as 26th century earthlings and arrive as 100th century shiplings. I wonder that if about say 1/3000th of the population of Earth were sent would only 1/3000th decide to leave the ship? That would be 334 people. Not a large colony. That's assuming that they had to scrounge and maybe force the original colonists off the Earth. The people that would want to get off the ship probably would be higher. Anyway what about Advancement? These people would effectivly have no resources to build advancements with. They could retro-fit or use their ship as a resource (as we use the earth) but that is not alot of material to work with. I wonder how the waste would be recycled? You can't make something of nothing so it probably would be a good idea to hang onto all waste in case it could be used again (limited material). If anyone knows how much trash or waste 1 million people produce a year that would be an indication of how much material they would use, even say reclaiming 60% that would probably be significant. Oh well it won't happen that way so thinking about it is just harmless speculation(?!?) Maybe.
