Awesome! I might try to practice on a livestream sometime, tonight I'm testing Twitch streams for my lego content. It's weird trying to explain how it all comes together.... hhaa

Since Douglas Adams didn't explain himself, you're under no obligation to explain yourself. :)

Hummm, based on what I know of NORMAL human psychology I'm fairly certain that suicide is what the last human would eventually do because there's nothing to live for.

I've done stories like that, but it was more interesting here to imagine they carry on.

In fact, in the earliest draft of this Galina did have a full-on breakdown upon hearing the news, but I like to imagine that, as an astronaut, she is hardier than the average person.

(and lives on to honour her son, and perhaps tell these new aliens about the human race)
