Stephen Hawking once said the future of mankind was limited to several paths. One path was moving the consciousness of mankind into a machine, trans-humanist, another path was the inhabitants of Earth colonizing space where no man has gone before. Faced with extinction, mankind tries every option and all paths to survival. Carl Rosenfeld and Tuma Sitzar are two participants in the quest of mankind's survival, they desire to live beyond the End of the Earth.
