Over time, the descendants of the surviving loyal crew have forgotten the purpose and nature of their ship and lapsed into a pre technological culture marked by superstition, wherein the word Ship is become a synonym of cosmos , so that To move the ship is considered an oxymoron , and references to the Ship s voyage are interpreted as metaphor .
