"The navigation system wakes the AI to report that it has detected an apparently perfect planet in a system close to the seedship's current course.

Change course to new planet Stay on course

if you choose to go new planet

"The seedship decelerates into the new system. The new planet is real, but it and its parent star are both orbited by strings of regular, metallic structures, clearly artificial but defying analysis by the seedship's sensors. The planet itself appears to be habitable for humans, but it also looks as if it has recently undergone sudden atmospheric and geological changes—as if the alien structures have terraformed it for human habtiation."
