(I realize others may have thought of this or similar plots before me... yay for Michael Crichton's "Timeline"... but I always struggle with coming up with interesting conflicts for stories. I think this is the first interesting one I've ever come up with.)
PREMISE: At some point in the near future, a research team discover a practical way to time travel. A team of researchers transport to a point 20 years in the future and disappear. The cause of disappearance is discovered to be the end of time itself; the team tried to travel to a point in time beyond the "end of the world".
CONFLICT: How do the various surviving characters react to the evidence of the imminent end of the cosmos? How does this affect they way they relate to one another? Do they try to keep this information from the world at large, to allow the world to live as "normal" of a life for as long as possible, or do they feel a moral obligation to tell everyone?
