Ark

This is part of the Amazon Original ‘Forward Collection' curated by Blake Crouch. This is my first experience with the author, and I enjoyed it. These are available through prime for free on kindle or audible! 

Two weeks before an asteroid destroys all of earth, a group of scientists are still dealing with the small stuff. And by that I mean seeds and plants. Most of earth is already evacuated, but this group is taxed with cataloguing samples for humanity's long journey to somewhere new. Somewhere in the growing panic, Samantha finds a new species, and with that, a new lease on hope. 

This was a well done short about what it means to be human, and what ties us to our humanity. In the event that we'd need to leave earth, would you be able to willingly give up your home? 

Personally a 4/5*. Narration from Evan Rachel Wood was great!
