[ NANO ] PREP WEEK 3 - Outlining Your Story ( also , programs you may want to get and learn in advance )

The story starts on what is probably the last inhabited planet in the universe. Every star in the universe has been destroyed in an ancient war, and by the time the main character Altair is born their'afterimages' from their light traveling only at lightspeed have all burnt out. Altair has never seen a star. 
 
 The planet, Last Hope, is a rogue planet, drifting through what was once the galaxy without a star. It was found by accident and populated just in case the Humans lost the aforementioned ancient war, so that the species could survive. However, Last Hope is slowly running out of energy. It relies on geothermal and nuclear sources, and its goal is to become efficient enough for the human race to survive for long enough for the hydrogen clouds to form new stars. However, as the plot begins it becomes apparent to Last Hope's researchers that the human body will never be that efficient. 
 
 The Programmers are the'ruling caste' on Last Hope, power is shared between them and the governing computer. Altair is attempting to be an artist because he failed his programming exam at age 25, but he is quickly becoming discouraged by his lack of artistic success. 
 
 The action starts with Altair tuning into a transmission from the Head Programmer ( If I choose to name him he will be called Rastaban ). He is announcing that at the current pace, Last Hope will never become energy-efficient enough to survive until the stars are reborn. As such, two measures are attempted to preserve the human race. 
 
 First, in Project Genesis, a ship will be sent back in time as far as possible until it finds a star system that's habitable for humans. It will take Last Hope's most intelligent people back to restart human life on another planet, in hope that this will change the course of history and prevent the stars from being destroyed. 
 
 All of the remaining people on Last Hope will have their consciousnesses uploaded to energy-efficient robots so that they will be efficient enough to survive. This is named Project Prometheus. 
 
 Altair's biological parents chose not to raise him, a common concept on Last Hope, so he was raised by a kindhearted couple, Pollux and Shedir, who took him in as a very young child. They have a daughter, Adhara, who is a year younger than Altair. Upon hearing the Head Programmer's announcement, Adhara immediately applies for a spot in Project Genesis. She convinces Altair to apply as well, but he knows he will be rejected, and he is. Adhara, on the other hand, is accepted to the Genesis Project. She leaves Last Hope and travels back in time. 
 
 Altair has always been in love with Adhara, but he was caught up in a sort of older-brother role to her. *Right before Adhara leaves, Altair tells her that he loves her. She says she loves him too, but when he moves in to kiss her she freaks out and says `` No, just as a sister! or something to that affect. * ( that part might be crappy, so advice on whether to take it out? ) With nothing else to do, Altair sees Adhara off on the Genesis Project's Time Ship and then returns to his home to be converted into a robot. 
 
 A plot twist awaits the crew of the Time Ship but it shall not be revealed here. 
 
 Many citizens of Last Hope resist the upload, but Altair does not. His consciousness is uploaded to a computer, but the machine does not accurately stimulate the human mind. His mind is ruled by pure logic and he joins the fight against the anti-machine resistance in order to preserve the human race. The ending of this conflict is another plot twist, and it shall not be revealed at this time either. 
 
 Thanks for reading. Any advice?
