* The events of Event Horizon directly led to the creation of ODS/pandorum. We see that pandorum causes hallucinations similar to what the crew sees in Event Horizon, and it's implied that the 'evil' inhabiting the Event Horizon is everywhere, not just confined to the gravity drive. It's possible that the Event Horizon was salvaged and melted down so the metal could be reused. In that case, ships like the Eden and the Elysium were made with remnants of the Event Horizon. This would mean that the pandorum experienced by their crews is actually a result of the evil still possessing the metal.

It's known that pandorum is exacerbated by psychological trauma. Both ''Eden'' and ''Elysium'' were undone when members of their flight crews went crazy from this disorder. If anti-space extremists who didn't want humanity to leave Earth could set up a fake transmission, they could send each ship a phony message suggesting Earth had been destroyed, putting enormous emotional stress on their flight crews and triggering pandorum as an explosive-free alternative to setting off a bomb on board. They also tampered with the computers on both ships while the vessels were under construction, inserting viral commands that were triggered by the "You're the last of us" transmission, blinding the ships' sensors to Earth's continued existence.

*** Unreliable source, indeed! The previous post is absolutely correct: Earth is never stated to be destroyed. The wording of the message is ambiguous, as is its source. Assuming it's coming from some kind of mission control on Earth, "you're the last of us" can have a ''lot'' of possible meanings, from the purely figurative (the nation/faction/organization is about to be absorbed) to the purely literal (all other humans will be dead shortly) to anywhere in between. It can also be an overstatement, that while humans as a species may not be done for, that there will be no further support or information from Earth because they simply won't be able to provide any for some reason (global resource depletion, CME, etc). At the range the ship is implied to be at, the inability to detect an object the size of Earth with what would have to be fairly small sensors is hardly conclusive.

*** Or it was sent by another colony ship that departed ''after'' the ''Elysium'' did, and that realized they weren't going to make it. Hence, "you're the last of us" meant "you're the last colonists headed for Tanis", not "you're the last humans".
