Fifteen Billion Years

And they assembled them at the place which is called in Hebrew Armageddon.
Revelations 16: 16 (RSV)
Holy Bible

In the not too distant future

An open-pit copper mine, the worlds largest superfund site now refilled and reclaimed. Disguised as a scientific research center, but in reality the planets most imposing military stronghold controlled by the worlds most evil general.

Two men who know the secret and a time machine.

The leap to a faraway and distant future through a horizon threshold on the edge of the universe and callow people in a new but primitive world beyond the Black Hole.

Then returning to an oppressive Federation controlling a world in tribulation and a wiry little old man with scraggly gray hair and bristling beard.

The entire planet on a collision course toward the ultimate conflict.

Armageddon.
