Scenario: Human Expansion

This page describes a scenario. The developments outlined here are possible, but unlikely and depend on a number of random factors.

This is an average timeline for humans expanding through space. Please note that this article has no relation to RyansWorld, as TimeMaster does not agree with most of the concepts.

2010s

2010
