The Yithians' unique reason turned into to look at the records of diverse instances and places, and that they have accrued a "library metropolis" this is packed with the beyond and future records of more than one races, such as humans. Ultimately the Yithians use their capacity to get away the destruction in their planet in every other galaxy with the aid of using switching our bodies with a race of cone-fashioned plant beings who lived 250 million years in the past on Earth.
