In the episode Utopia, a big deal was made about how the rocket at Silo 16 was the only thing that could get the human refugees off the planet and on their way to Utopia. But in order to land on the planet in the first place, they must have had some form of interplanetary transport; why couldn't they just use that to reach Utopia? 82.2.136.93^{talk to me} 22:31, February 16, 2012 (UTC)

They never said when the humans got to Malcassairo; it could have been hundreds or thousands of years ago. Any spaceship that brought them there could have broken down ages ago. -<Azes13 ^{talk to me} 22:49, February 16, 2012 (UTC)
