We have reached for the stars and we have claimed them.  Everywhere we’ve gone, we’ve brought our virtues, our sins, and our laws.  Every colony, every world, is a unique combination of us, and those of us who fly through the stars have to remember that.  What may be commonplace on one colony may be a capital offense on another.  Laws change, but right and wrong does not.  Our challenge is to bridge the gap everywhere we go.
