"Hey... it's been a while." Chris patted himself on his head, running his fingers through his hair. "I never really thought I'd ever manage to do something like this, you know? And no, I don't mean saving the planet. Or being in a time stop. Or blowing up an entire planet and somehow getting rid of it. I meant absorbing so much information about a topic that never really seemed interesting to me. I know so much more now, and yet I feel tinier than ever. The vastness of the galaxy, our irrelevance in its working..." he paused, staring at the camera set up in front of him. "Many scientists wrote about things just for the theoretical sake of it. Now I'll be the first person to ever need to put them into practice. Because our fate depends on it." He shuffled around some files on the desk.

His workplace was still set up at the NASA office, but had traveled all over the country to read important literature and gather them in his workspace. The entire building and every building close by were piled with thousands of books related to mathematics, space and quantum theory.

"According to some very detailed theories which I'll potentially neverbe able to grasp, or at least not in the coming thousand years, I'm able tomake a machine that creates a black hole of such magnitude that it will swallowwhatever is close to it and somehow transfer it through space like a wormhole.. Think Large HadronCollider but then big. Bigger. Loads bigger." He put his hands close togetheras he slowly motioned them outwards, stopping as his arms nearly stretched. "I'llhave to be precise with my calculations before I end up somewhere on the otherside of the solar system, but in theory it's possible. All I need to do now isassemble it, somehow allow it to come with me in space and then executeeverything perfectly. Sounds like a plan." he smiled, raising his eyebrows.5936735:
