Le jour se leva comme un avertissement . À l'est le ciel devint rouge , puis jaune et ensuite gris . Et finalement tout le ciel fût gris et le resta toute la journée . Fyrine grimpa de plus en plus haut et ne fût plus qu'une sinistre lueur rouge derrière les nuages .

And yet humanity goes, humanity searches.

Un navire des temps futurs, fait d'espoir et de science, entouré par un vide trop profond, et des étoiles perdues dans l'infiniment grand
