Since science fiction is involved, you can use the concept of a generation ship starship: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generation_ship
with sub type embryo space colonization en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Embryo_space_colonization
In this setup you have tremendous freedom to build your story from any aspect:
The world will be a planet with any properties you like.
The humans will be evolved at any stage you like.

Sponsor means to raise the colonists can be configured as your story needs.
Plot twists can be excused more easily.
