Distance Movement

The Distance Movement is an ideological and political movement in the Emorian Union that supports the exploration of other galaxies, in opposition to the Insular Movement, which opposes exploration. This support is focused largely behind the Venture Expedition, the first Emorian mission to explore another galaxy.

The primary reason for its support for exploration is a historical appeal to the central tenet of xenophilia, which was the guiding value for early Emorian explorers, both planetary and galactic, and upon which Emorian civilization is popularly conceived to be based.
