When Dr. Altwin turned eighty-four, he was presented a colony ship, the Total Diaspora, for interstellar travel. He would be the ceremonial captain. It had three Innerspace cores, a shaped field and two MegaTon and one light-year shift capacity. His family would be among the first settlers of a new star system.
Local interplanetary trips had already proven the device and small unmanned scout ships had located many Earth-like extra-solar planets. A course was plotted, crossing paths with twelve planets, intending to settle one of them. Cheerios Land was the twelfth, and turned out to be the only one that could be easily settled.
Matter transmission used a COMmon Frame Of Reference Table for items being moved. Establish enough common points in a table of sixty-four essential background pattern criteria and exchange was possible. Complementary patterns cancelled and transposed, creating a condition of dyslexia in the universe itself. The exchange mechanism was a Joined Object Interface that exists as an artificial construct within inner space, connected to our space by the Innerspace core.
They realized that implementation of the Innerspace Drive was altering the G.L.A.D. in unintended ways, setting up tidal influences like the Moon and the sea, well into their interstellar trip. Innerspace communications with Earth abruptly ended. It was thought likely that the essential patterns of events on Earth had been altered enough to end modern technical civilization, or even all life, in near-Earth space.
