    I was expecting to see a trail of ghosts left behind as the earth moves away.

      There is the Great Ghost Cluster in the distant void, passing messages up and down its endless stream of ghost bodies in order to log world events at the speed of voice.

        This is actually an awesome writing prompt: The older ghosts get updates from the younger ones, and send stories back from their own lives, like a long telephone wire…

          That story wouldn’t get to the beginning of the line without being completely changed to be unrecognisable

            That feels like practically a feature, when you have an eternity to fill and only a finite number of original stories with which to do so.
