The '''''New Hope''''' was a [[colony ship]] created by [[human]]s on [[Earth]] in the early [[22nd century]]. Its crew became the original [[colonist]]s of the [[planet]] [[Agora]], before the ship relocated to [[New Earth (Time of Your Life)|New Earth]]. | |||
== History == | |||
The ''New Hope'' was created by [[human]]s on [[Earth]] in the early [[22nd century]], as part of the [[Century Program]]. It was eventually launched - an event witnessed by humans across all of Earth, as well as the [[Sixth Doctor]] and [[Grant Markham]] from within [[the Doctor's TARDIS]] above [[Mars]]' [[orbit]] - and began a journey to the [[planet]] [[Agora]] in the [[Centraxis system]]. The [[crew]] of the ''New Hope'', after much discussion, decided that the [[civilisation]] that they would establish on Agora would eschew the advanced [[technology]] developed on Earth, in favour of a significantly more primitive, [[Agriculture|agricultural]] [[society]]. | |||
When the ''New Hope'' eventually landed on Agora, the crew sealed away any advanced technology they had brought with them within the [[colony ship]]. The ''New Hope'' was then piloted by the remaining crew members, who were against the idea of living in an agricultural civilisation, from Agora to a different planet, which they eventually established a significantly more technologically-advanced civilisation on, and named it [[New Earth (Time of Your Life)|New Earth]]. However, the decision by the [[colonist]]s of Agora to abandon the advanced technology that they had brought with them onboard the ''New Hope'' ultimately resulted in the colonists and their [[descendant]]s being unable to prevent the [[CyberNomad]]s from invading Agora in the [[2150s]] and subsequently enslaving the planet's inhabitants to maintain a [[Cyberman]] breeding colony during the [[Vogan War]] and its aftermath.

== Appearance == | |||
The ''New Hope'' featured a significant amount of [[gold]] and large add-on components on its external shell. Although these served no functional purpose, [[Grant Markham]] observed that they made the [[colony ship]] appear complex and important, befitting its role as the instigator of the [[Colonial Age]] of [[human]] [[space travel]].
