"...the people dealing with these new technologies will still be derived from the human stock we're familiar with today."
- Charles Stross

New Suns From Old  
  Creating new stars by crashing together the cinders of dead stars.  

They saw the humans of the micro-cosmos perform stupendous feats, moving planets from dead suns to other stars that still had some life, crashing dark stars together to form new molten suns.


(Creation of Suns from 'The Cosmic Pantograph' by Edmond Hamilton)

But these measures could not halt even for a moment the colossal process of dissolution and death. Like a candle flickering out, the microcosmos approached its end. Inside the sphere, only a few ominous red sparks of old, dying suns now glimmered in the blackness.
