Humanity as we know it, is extinct, and is the Progenitor species responsible for all of the mystical artifacts and crumbling ruins strewn across the galaxy. All species are either descended from humanity, or were xenos that evolved after humanity's passing.

The Sol system is covered in a massive ion storm, making it a very dangerous place to visit. But it is said that those who reach Earth will find paradise

The ion strom was caused by the last "remnants" of humanity (a highly evolved sub-species) turning the Earth into a massive generation ship to voyage into the depths of space between galaxies.
In fact, they are completely un-intentional.

Having long ago found technology and computer insufficient for storage and processing of mass amounts of data. The Progenitor Human breeded the Common Goldfish into the prefect Data storage unit.
It never forgets, EVER. While massive data can be stored even at small sizes, the large they grow the more they can store. They grow to the size of their container... if no container they will never stop growing...
Special links are used to retrieve data, and it is said some cult hold a massive Fish with the knowledge of how to crack time and space just as the Humans had... sadly the computations links are rather rare.

After the passing of the monkeys, countless industrialized planets became the domain of those best-fit to eat what remained. The porcine people now rule the skies. Orcs rool, waaagh.

Similarly, all plants and animals found in the old Empire of Humanity are all specially designed to provide exactly what is needed to the nearest human. The offspring species of humanity are part of this system but are unaware of it.

Mars was going to be colonized ages ago
Was being the key word
Then one day they discovered a massive black needle had been driven through the center of Mars, making it look like an olive on a toothpick. Theres no information of how or when the needle appeared, and any attempt to land on the planet leads to catastrophic electronic disturbances, ensuring any trip to Mars is a one way one without any chance of contacting the outside.
At some point near the end of humanities life, all pigeons were replaced by self replicating robots that look exactly like pigeons. The reasons for this are lost to the ages, and no one knows what the robot pigeons do, just that they have spread to every colonized world and space station in the galaxy.
