Other new technologies have created various off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold.

Transcript For Strip 238
Panel 1Overhead view of the shuttle descending towards the lunar surface, a bit more than a thousand kilometers below. We can clearly see domed craters in the mountains and some airskin-covered stretches in the plains.
Pilot: Attention passengers, this is your pilot.
Pilot: We are on track for Aldrinopolis, estimated arrival time is 1 hour, 25 minutes.
Panel 2
In the passenger cabin, looking over a row of seat-backs, and some random passengers' heads, at the next row of seat-backs, which have monitors built into them. The monitors show a camera view from the bow of the shuttle, towards their destination.
Pilot: Passengers may view our progress on their seat-back monitors.
Pilot: Using your arm-rest controls you can switch views from nose-cam to schematic ...
Panel 3
A shot of the control cabin – there are no humans or even androids present – just machinery. The pilot's voice comes from one of the consoles.
Pilot: We have just passed the Sea of Vapors and will be crossing the Sea of Tranquility on our final approach.
Panel 4
Nicole and Seamus, sitting in their seats in the front row. Seamus is ignoring the pilot, doing something with his Screen. Nicole is intently watching the monitor, which is on the cabin bulkhead in front of her (OP).
Pilot: In approximately 10 minutes the monitor will mark the location of 'Tranquility Base,' where the first men landed on Luna, just four weeks shy of 511 years ago.
