Fifty men and women set out in the twenty-third century from Earth
aboard an interstellar craft to travel to a planet some thirty
light-years away. The ship will approach the speed of light and so
(as Einstein predicted) subjective time on board will slow and so
the journey of several decades will be of much shorter duration for
the crew. But the ship's deceleration system is irreparably damaged
when it hits a cloud of interstellar dust and acceleration
continues toward light speed, tau zero. Soon the ship is speeding
through galaxies and eons are passing on board the ship in the
blink of an eye ...
