The year is 2030, astronauts have for the first time landed on Mars, they found a cave with human skeletons, and a message written on the wall. What does it say? (kbin.social)

I'm gonna go with this:

"We screwed up our Planet, Earth is our last hope for humanity"

That'd be the biggest UNO reverse card ever.

I like both of the "Earth is our final chance" ideas, but they don't explain why we find skeletons.

Instead how about the message being "Go back through the portal before it closes!" That's reminiscent of situations like the first planet found in Stargate: Universe where they learn that there's a time limit, or the one Star Trek: TNG where they find a potential stable wormhole but Geordi sees it may not be and the Ferengi scientists don't believe him.
