generation ships
"we left the ground behind. we left the oceans. we left the air. we watched these things grow small. we watched them shrink into a point of light... we are the children who continue on."

Yesss I love this trope and haven't even heard of most of these!
Ursula K Le Guin also wrote a really good novella about a generational ship called "Paradises Lost." I read it in the collection The Birthday of the World and Other Stories, not sure if it's been published on its own since.

i couldn’t believe how many there are once i started doing some research!! it’s also one of my faves and i feel it’s very underappreciated.
i’ll add the collection here!
