Tens of thousands of years into the future, humans launch a one in a billion shot opportunity ship into interdimensional space.

This story boggles the mind. <br><br>It was built using matter from the first stars in the universe. The first elements, the first atoms, the first molecules. Hydrogen and helium, lithium and beryllium. The first molecules to ever be forged in the heart of a billion degree Big Bang. <br><br>The ship itself was an enormous star, 100 solar masses of matter smashed into a 10 AU long cylinder. <br><br>The journey took over a billion years. It traveled to another dimension entirely. <br><br>The crew were frozen in cryostasis for the entire duration of the journey. They were the greatest scientists, engineers, and explorers of the last billion years. <br><br>The ship was a success, it passed the event horizon of the wormhole. <br><br>The ship never came out the other end.<br><br>It was a one in a billion shot, but that was exactly what they had hoped for. The crew were to be the first to ever be lost to the unknown, to never have their names known to history. <br><br>Their mission was to explore an unknown dimension, one that had only recently been detected. The dimension was a mere 10^-20 degrees off the main plane of existence. <br><br>It was an incredibly difficult task to build a ship capable of traversing such a dimension. But the scientists and engineers had succeeded. <br><br>They had succeeded because they had built the ship using matter from the first stars, the first atoms. Matter that had existed in a state of quantum fluctuation for 13.8 billion years, matter that had the most minute chance of interacting with our dimension. <br><br>It was this chance that they were relying on, a one in a billion shot that the matter would be able to interact with the wormhole. And to their amazement, it worked. The ship had vanished into thin air, never to be seen again. <br><br>The crew were lost to history, their mission a failure. But the ship itself was still out there, still traveling through the dimension. <br><br>It had traveled for over a billion years. It would continue to travel for over another billion years. It was a journey that would take over two billion years to complete. <br><br>The ship had entered the dimension in 2053. It would not emerge for over 3.5 billion years. <br><br>No one would ever see the ship again. <br><br>But the crew, the men and women who had built and traveled in the ship, would never die. They would remain frozen in cryostasis for the duration of the journey. <br><br>And when they finally emerged from the dimension, they would be the first humans to ever exist. <br><br>The journey had taken over a billion years, but the crew had only been frozen for a few decades. <br><br>They would awaken to a strange and unknown world. <br><br>One that was vastly different from the one they had left behind. <br><br>Their mission had been to explore the unknown, but they had never imagined that they would be the first humans to ever exist. <br><br>They would be the first to set foot on Earth. The first to feel the warmth of the sun on their skin. The first to breathe in the fresh air. <br><br>They would be the first to see the stars shining brightly in the night sky. The first to walk on the beach, feeling the sand between their toes. The first to smell the flowers blooming in the fields. <br><br>They would be the first to taste the food and drink of the Earth. The first to hear the songs of the birds. The first to feel the wind in their hair. <br><br>They would be the first to experience the world. <br><br>The ship finally emerged from the dimension in 3.75 billion years. <br><br>It was a time when the universe was vastly different from the one it had left behind. The stars had burned out, the galaxies had collided and merged. The matter that had once existed in the universe was now a thin mist, scattered across the cosmos. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension that was so vastly different from our own. A dimension where gravity worked differently. A dimension where time worked differently. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of physics were different. A dimension where the laws of mathematics were different. A dimension where the laws of logic were different. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where reality was different. A dimension where the laws of the universe were different. A dimension where the very fabric of space and time was different. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of causality were different. A dimension where cause and effect were reversed. A dimension where the future was the past. A dimension where the present was the future. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of time were different. A dimension where time worked in reverse. A dimension where time was flowing backwards. A dimension where time was standing still. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of space were different. A dimension where space was infinite. A dimension where space was finite. A dimension where space was curved. A dimension where space was flat. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of gravity were different. A dimension where gravity worked in reverse. A dimension where gravity pulled objects apart instead of together. A dimension where gravity repelled instead of attracted. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of physics were different. A dimension where physics worked differently. A dimension where physics was a different field of study. A dimension where physics was a different science. A dimension where physics was a different subject. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of mathematics were different. A dimension where mathematics worked differently. A dimension where mathematics was a different language. A dimension where mathematics was a different tool. A dimension where mathematics was a different subject. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of logic were different. A dimension where logic worked differently. A dimension where logic was a different reasoning. A dimension where logic was a different thought process. A dimension where logic was a different way of thinking. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where reality was different. A dimension where reality was a different state. A dimension where reality was a different condition. A dimension where reality was a different existence. A dimension where reality was a different reality. <br><br>The ship had traveled through a dimension where the laws of the universe were different. A dimension where the laws of the universe were a different set of rules. A dimension where the laws of the universe were a different set of laws. A dimension where the laws of the universe were a different set of principles. A dimension where the laws of the universe were a different set of guidelines.
