CHARLES YNFANTE'S SHORT STORY: "VOYAGE at the END of TIME"


 Voyage at the End of Time is a science fiction story set in a universe on the brink of total collapse with all life throughout the universe ending in twenty years.  

The story is told from the perspective of an historian, the daughter of an astrophysicist, living on the planet Kio. 

She is experiencing the final years of the universe as it implodes into a Black Hole. The historian's father, an astrophysicist, embarks on a perilous journey to Earth, which is experiencing severe gravitational disturbances. 

The story is divided into two main parts: the daughter’s account and the father's narrative. The historian describes the efforts to evacuate populations from planets close to the Black Hole and the emotional turmoil of saying goodbye to her father. The father's narrative details his journey to Earth --- a final pilgrimage --- where he encounters a war-torn planet with desperate inhabitants fighting for survival. He witnesses the chaos and destruction caused by the impending total collapse of the universe and the struggles of the remaining people on Earth.
