Humans (Avatar)

Humans are a species native to Earth in the Avatar Universe. They built interstellar vessels which allowed them to expand to the Alpha Centauri System and explore its planets and moons. They met the Na'vi on one of its moons, Pandora. Even though the humans have advanced technology, they have ravaged Earth to the point of resource depletion. As such, the economies of Earth nations have become poor. Their mission is therefore to mine Pandora of the mineral unobtanium, which is valued at 20 million dollars a kilogram, often at the expense of the plant, animal and sentient life on Pandora.

Since humans are unable to breathe Pandora's atmosphere, they must use exopacks when on the moon's surface. The Avatar Program technology enables the transfer of human consciousness into cloned human/Na'vi hybrids, known as avatars. Once transferred to an avatar body, a human can live comfortably on Pandora.
