I had a concept for Noah-type movie. A civilization escaping an imminent transition to red giant status (star) on a 90 light year migration journey to planet earth

The title of the movie: The resurrection of Gamma Crucis lol

Gamma Crucis, often called Gacrux, is the nearest red giant star to the Sun. The distance to Gacrux has been determined using parallax measurements made during the Hipparcos mission, which yielded a value of 88.6 light-years away from Earth. Wikipedia

What is cool about this is that the red giant is part of the Southern Cross constellation which is no longer visible in the northern hemisphere since about the time of Jesus Christ.

At least this would have been informative and thought provoking.
