Ferris explains why many scientists are convinced that life is abundant throughout the cosmos, and he considers how one day radio telescopes may be used to connect us to an intergalactic Internet and link us to alien civilizations in the far reaches of the universe.

Jane is the only person left on the planet, minding the only business left: a gift shop. She wasn’t born on Earth, but her ancestors were; they lived there before the AI in charge of geoengineering failed and the oceans got too hot to sustain the terrestrial food web and before humans took off to colonize other planets.

"They landed in California, in Sequoia National Park. See Blake over there,” Jasmin looked to where a group where locked in a heated discussion in the large board room. “They are deciding what to do.

Now they had landed, and she had missed it.
