Sky People/The Culling



The Culling was an event were 320 people willingly sacrificed themselves, so the rest of the Ark would have more time to repair life-support.

After the 100 were able to contact the Ark—and let everyone know that Earth was able to support life—the families of those culled became upset with what they now perceived as an unnecessary sacrifice.

This contributed to the Unity Day mutiny.

Event
The Culling happened in a small room in section 17 with a fan in the room, as the 320 people shuffled in the room. The door closed and the fan slowly stopped, and the 320 people took their last breath.

It was intended to be a surprise to the citizens of section 17, but after Abby Griffin had showed her husband's video, they had banded together and willingly gave up their lives.

Victims
320 citizens of the Ark, including:
 * Cuyler Ridley's wife
 * Tor Lemkin
 * 318 other citizens of the Ark
