"The Colonists", by Raymond F. Jones, is a science fiction story set on the faraway planet Serrengia, where people are trying to start a new home. Captain Louis Carnahan feels like he's not doing a good job leading the mission and dealing with tough conditions and problems within the colony. The story also looks at Dr. John Ashby’s ideas about what makes a good colonist. Mark Jorden represents a wish for building a life on the new planet, even when things get hard. The core question that the story addresses is: what makes people want to leave their lives behind and start over somewhere completely new, and what does it truly mean to build a colony?
