The Hero Institute, the Justice Corps, and the Diplomats
When the first generation ships left Earth, each had a very small population of super-powered heroes aboard, mixed with a much larger population of typical humans. As the ships traveled, the fraction of supers aboard each ship increased, due to exposure to the Unobtanium engines.
The Promethean Insurrection
The faction now known as Prometheans was founded by Dr. HR Cornish. When humans on Earth were preparing to launch the first generation ships into space, many scientific teams jumped at the chance to revolutionize space travel. One stood far above the rest: the scientists led by Dr. Cornish. It was his team that discovered how to convert Unobtanium into a highly potent and efficient energy source using Cornish’s Theory of Relative Thermogravimetry.

Video of Sci-Fi Environment
Each of the 20 ship modules in the Justice has layers: a layer above with an artificial sky, and multiple layers below where the crew work, and ship activities take place. These lower levels are brightly-lit at the top, near the surface, and become darker and more dangerous the further a character descends.
