Description

Inspired by the Sci-Fi Trilogy Remembrance of Earth's Past by Cixin Liu, this site allows users to plan for inter-solar system travel with the fictitious space travel organization, The Halo Group. This Halo Group website will allow their customers to enter their age and how many years they plan to be cryogenically frozen to see how many years old they would be and the difference in their age and their estimated life expectancy on different planets that are part of a travel package.
