The history of Man after evolving from the trees and leading a social life, is filled with conjecture of what happens after death. Towards this end many civilizations throughout Man's History have constructed edifices to try and return to this pre-world or to travel to a more fitting world of paradise. In this story, a modern twist plays out in sending the ashes and piece of the departed tissue into deep space. These are the remains of a science fiction writer and his spouse of 60 plus years. On a planet, on the other side of the galaxy, the capsule with their contents are found by a highly evolved alien society. Bringing their best scientists together the tissues are used to bring the whole being back. He is returned to find his naked self in a tissue culture tank. The story uses all the current stages of laboratory stem cell research and tissue culture growth in returning a being from a single cell. Why did the deceased author wish to participate in this celestial experiment and why did he need his spouse with him? Was it his feeling that there were other more developed life forms in the cosmos? He intuitively knew that in one human life time he would never be able to find such a cosmic being, he gave himself the time of eternity?
