<DIV><b>Earth&rsquo;s wealthiest man attempts to save humanity from an impending apocalypse<BR><BR></b></div><DIV></div><DIV>The planet&rsquo;s first and only trillionaire, Henry Peel, did not make his fortune by being a fool. A gifted inventor and scientist, he possesses an imagination on the scale of history&rsquo;s greatest thinkers, and he has turned it to the problem of Earth&rsquo;s core. Two decades ago, scientists learned that the core spins faster than the rest of the planet, storing up a cache of energy that, if released, could cause an earthquake that would obliterate human life. To begin mankind anew, Henry Peel is going to lead us to the stars.</div><DIV>&#160;</div><DIV>He gathers the world&rsquo;s leading physicists and engineers and asks them to design a spaceship large enough to safeguard a sample of humanity and durable enough to survive a thousand-year voyage. Money is no object, but time is short. The apocalypse is on its way.</div>
