Doomed Colony Ship
The "Doomed Colony Ship" event in Stellaris — flavor, choices, and how to trigger it with the event console command.
Doomed Colony Ship

Inside the wrecked ship on …, we found sophisticated chambers for hydroponic plant growth, extensive reserves of seeds and soils, and cargo bays full of untouched tools and building materials. Many of the data terminals contain plans for a new colony, designated as "New Bratulla". On the lower decks, occupying thousands of cryosleep pods, were the dead bodies of the ship's former inhabitants. Like us, they relied on photosynthesis for cell growth and renewal. Their withered forms suggest they perished at some point during a prolonged stasis sleep.
