About this listen

As the human population fades away, one man decides to spend the rest of his life amongst the stars. He isn't trying to escape the extinction. He's trying to get away from something else.

This is one of my fave stories of the series - the thought of being alone in space for decades is too intense to get my head around.
But what is up with the sound recording - sounds like it’s being read in a toilet in a space shuttle. Maybe that was the plan? If so, it doesn’t work. Please fix.

Great story but sort out the recording
