The Arcturians learned that the density of their world's [[atmosphere]] was steadily decreasing and would be completely gone in a million years. When the air became too thin for flying, they decided to flee in a great [[fleet]] of [[spaceship]]s for a better world. After many thousands of years in space, during which their wings atrophied and they lost much of their technological knowledge, they crossed the forty [[light year]]s between their world and [[Earth]], upon which they hoped to settle.
